May 2023: My Plan for the 1940s

(You can read more about the Reading Through the Decades reading challenge on my post introducing the challenge. Basically, it’s a year-long reading challenge where we read books - and explore other media - from the 1900s to the 2020s, decade-by-decade.)

Here’s a list of the things I’ve got my eye on for this month:
