Hello my little book-loving nuggets. I hope you've been well and read lots of lovely books over the summer. I certainly did, and was so distracted that I forgot to post my books of July, then before I knew it, we're in the 'ber' months! In the words of Inigo Montoya: Let me explain. No, there is too much. Let me sum up. Ahem Kicking things off, we have Play Me, by Charles Harris. Charles was kind enough to give me a copy when we were chatting at Capital Crime.

It's the winter of 1975, and Duane Minor, back home in Portland, Oregon after a tour in Vietnam, is struggling to quell his anger and keep his drinking in check, keep his young marriage intact, and keep the nightmares away. Things get even more complicated when his thirteen-year-old niece, Julia, is sent across the country to live with her Aunt Heidi and Uncle Duane after a tragedy. But slowly, carefully, guided by Heidi's love and patience, the three of them are building a family. Then Minor crosses the wrong man: John Varley, a criminal with a bloody history and a trail of bodies behind him.

Hello my little book-loving nuggets. Yes, I know it's nearly the end of July, but I've only just realised that I didn't actually get as far as writing this summary for June. Ooops. Without further ado, let's have a look at the eight books I read in June. Starting with one that I read at the end of May. Look, it's my blog, I'll do what I want, ok? Super excited to get my grubby little book blogger paws on an early copy of Time Jump by Adam Simcox, which is out in September from Renegade Books who very kindly ignore my NetGalley ratio and let me read an early copy!
