Who was your buddy this month?monkiainen
What books were chosen for you? Memoirs of an Invisible Man - H.F. Saint (sci-fi), The Echo of a Shot - Alf Henrikson (non-fiction), Crooked House - Agatha Christie (female author)
Did you manage to read your books? Which ones? Crooked House only.
Would you recommend your chosen book(s)? I guess so. It wasn't bad, it was actually pretty good. Though I didn't care for the MC and I'm so-so on the culprit. I've certainly read worse choice of criminals though. I dunno. I guess nothing compares to And Then There Were none to me of her books, though it's been like 15 years since I read it and I don't know if it holds up for me. But I did like that it kind of connected me to my grandma, because she got this copy of the book back in the 50s.
Did you read anything else this month, outside of your chosen books? No, I didn't. Well not books, at least. I read some fanfics as well but eh. Besides that I didn't read a lot besides when I was editing my own stuff.
