Quiet:The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking By Susan Cain
I saw this reviewed at the link above & thought it might be an interesting read. I've been thinking lately about the pressure society places on people to be extroverted. I was going to ebook it, but I have the feeling this one is one I might loan out to people, so I'll look for a physical copy.
Some thing else I can't find again....I saw a link to a novel on a webcomic advert. I thought it looked interesting and was purchasable on smashwords, so off I went, only I was on a computer away from home and couldn't remember my user or password. I thought I emailed myself with the link...but no, I didn't & now I can't remember book, author or even which webcomic it was. bummer.
Edit: aannnd found the book: The house of Yeel which i am carefully linking here so i can go off and buy it at a convenient time.

thats right, May is over
So now, to my books of May..almost all of which were box sets;
All the James H. Schmidt novels that came free from baen books (ebook), the last of which I don't think I'd read - ah, good times
Tamora Pierce Songs of the Lioness series - the first Pierce novels I ever read & the author who introduced me to the young adult section of Dymocks.
Lloyd Alexander: Chronicles of Prydain - a lot closer in style to Lord of the rings than much of what I've read fantasy wise, but also a lot closer in date.
I had family visiting for 1/2 of May so that's all I got through this month.
