Also rereading Agatha Christie, reading all the books by the Yorkshire Shepherdess, rereading Tolkien, and reading quite a bit of Val McDermid and Peter May. I've also recently read The Luminaries. A friend just recommended The 71/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle...

Driven to Distraction as is diagnosed with ADHD in January. Also working my way through Diana Athill's autobiographies. If you haven't read her, she's an utter delight with a brilliant turn of phrase and well before her time when it comes to social issues and understanding privilege. I just finished Kitty Flanagan's book, and an about to start the latest Tom Cox - come for the cute cat stories, stay for the delightful folk fantasy.

‘The Professor And The Madman’. Dr. Minor, contributing author to the Oxford Dictionary, despite his severe lifetime mental illness, proved himself a brilliant scholar...while struggling to remain in the envelope.

I've tried to remember my last months and it's quite the mix. 'A Wizards Guide To Defensive Baking' and 'Minor Mage' by T. Kingfisher, which are joyous magical fantasy. 'Down Cemetery Road' and 'The Last Voice You Hear' by Mick Herron (Bleak thrillers. He went on to write the Jackson Lamb (Slough House) books which I rate with la carré for spy craft.) 'Ouroborous Ouzo' - a Johannes Cabal The Necromancer short story. Fed up of typing,here's the rest Emergency Skin - N. K. Jemisin Tales from the folly - Ben Arronovitch Welcome To Nowhere - Caimh McDonnell Hello World - Hannah Fry Things To Make And Do In The Fourth Dimension - Matt Parker The Invisible Library - Geniveve Cogman. Don't bother with 'Off To Be The Wizard' not matter how hard Kindle tries to force it on you. Animated retro graphics do not make up for an interesting premise told really badly

For context, my account name is mainly to amuse Sophie Hagen when she reads her supporters names out.

Love the peak into your reading world (along with the recent Teacast talking about romance novels). August so far for me, Killing Black Bodies (race, reproduction, freedom) by Dorothy Roberts, The Ten Thousand doors of January (a lovely ode to imagination by Alix Harrow, a fun cookbook called Soul Food Love by Alice Randall, Begin Again by Eddie S. Glaude Jr. which was a gut wrenching look at the writings of James Baldwin through our current experience, and tonight I'll be starting The End of Everything (Astrophysically Speaking) by Katie Mack.

I'm in the middle of Dopesick by Beth Macy (about the opiods crisis in the US) and The Body: A Guide For Occupants by Bill Bryson.

Do audio books count? I like to listen while I was dishes.

Revenger series by Alastair Reynolds. Lovely humanist hard sci fi

I just finished Colson Whitehead's The Nickel Boys, which is a great book but is also about the brutal mistreatment of children but not the funny brutal mistreatment of children like Lemony Snicket books or Oliver Twist.
