In May, I re-read three books and read one new to me book. I re-read these three books which are a part of a series. Each novel is told in e-mails and IM chats. I really love novels written through that format. I rated these three books 5 stars on Goodreads.com when I first read them. These books tell the story of a group of Stay At Home Moms (referred to as SAHM's in the book) and talks about their everyday lives/etc. I really enjoyed re-reading these novels. The last novel that I read in May is called Fake Date by Monica Murphy. This is the second novel in the Dating series. I read the first one back in April. I have the third book (on my Kindle app on my iPad) and I don't have the fourth one yet. Books 5 & 6 in the series are coming out this year.  I really enjoyed this story. The characters/plot/etc. were all really great. I'm really liking this series. I rated this novel 5 stars.
