November Overview
December 4, 2013 4 Comments
November was a quiet reading month. I would have liked to have had more time for reading, but the end result wasn’t that bad. And I read all the books – there were no DNFs this month.
Book that stood out:
I loved The Humans by Matt Haig, about an alien who lives the life of a Cambridge professor and discovers what it’s like to be human.
This is what I read

You are the second person in 2 days to recommend The Humans, so I’ve put in a hold at the library – glad to hear you rated it 5 stars!
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did, Libby. I thought it was funny and sad at the same time. I’ll post my review in a few days (no spoilers).
The Humans is one of my favorite books this year, I can’t wait to see your full review!
My review of The Humans is online now, Shannon. 🙂 Good to hear you loved it too!
