I am a few days late posting my May book reads, but with everything going on in the World last week - it just didn't feel right.

During the month of May, in addition to my regular reads, I have been reading two additional books with book clubs.  I had to remind myself of that since I only have 5 reads for the month of May and felt like I read so much more.

Remember when you are looking for your next book, be sure to support an independent bookstore like The Book Worm.  There are many ways to support The Book Worm even during this crazy time. - Julia R. Davis, Author

1.  Big Lies in a Small Town by Diane Chamberlain 5 Stars Another great Diane Chamberlain book. I love how her characters tie the present to the past. Great story about two artists born in two different times - dealing with the mistakes they made.

2.  Charlotte's Web 5 Stars One of my childhood favorites. I was asked from one of my attendees during our book club session about one of my favorite childhood reads. A few years ago I found out this was actually banned in Kansas in 2006 and I have wanted to reread it since then.  A children's classic that should be read by all.

3.  Her Daughter's Mother 4 Stars  I am always a fan of a good story told from different points of view. This is a great psychological thriller by 3 characters. Enjoyed from beginning to end.

4.  A Good Girl's Guide to Murder 3.5 Stars Not a bad young adult book and I enjoyed how some visuals were incorporated in the book. This book took me awhile to get into, but I guess I was expected more with all the rave reviews.

5.  You Were There Too 3 Stars Another slow starter but ended up picking up some.  I did enjoy how it showed how dreams and the unknown play a role in paths we may have crossed.
