Who's picked one?
I missed May, but also didn't read a single book in May.
The Man of Legends (supernatural thriller)
SOHO dead (crime fiction)
Stillhouse Lake (psychological thriller)
Wives of war (historical fiction)
The man who could be king (biographical fiction)
Lost in Arcadia (Dystopian Fiction)

I picked Arcadia. It was between that and Stillhouse Lake.
I skipped May, none of them really appealed to me.

I picked Wives of War.
Every month I spend too long trying to decide, and then I always go with the historical fiction.

A little late, but I picked still house lake, too. The amazon reviews so far are great!

I started but am not getting into it and was wondering if it improves or not... I read the first chapter and then got distracted, so I don't have any opinions yet. I will report back

bearfootz, I finally read it. Did you make it through? I found the first 1/3 of it sooooooo slow. It marginally improved after that but it was still pretty mediocre. I don't know that I would recommend it to anyone. It wasn't bad, but it is not great.

I'm no book snob and hate quitting books mid-way but just wasn't getting into it. I'll give it a try again someday - thanks for the feedback.
