May Reading Wrap up
A somewhat mixed bag of books this month.
The sublime Simple Passion by Annie Ernaux was a massive standout; I also read a bunch of historical things - Grettir's Saga and some old Icelandic Folktales - as well as a cute cosy fantasy Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries, which is a bit outside my realm of reading (not subject matter but writing style - "easy reading").
