Well, seeing as how you read TWO chunks in April, I'm sure we can forgive you for missing May. ;)

I'm planning on reading a Margaret Atwood novel for my Chunk Challenge this month - The Robber Bride. Looking forward to reading it...

I certainly plan to read more of Atwood's work, Paula. I enjoyed the audio book of The Handmaid's tale and I'm looking forward to The Robber Bride...
