What book are you currently reading?
I recently started reading "A Woman in Black" by Susan Hill.
Just finished ‘On the law of speaking freely’ Adam Tomkins - an excellent survey covering the US, UK and EU. In the middle of: Adventurers, David Howarth, an account of the beginnings of the East India Company, and Witch Wood, a delightful historical novel by John Buchan set in c16th Scotland. Just started: The House of War, the struggle between Christendom and the Caliphate, Simon Mayall. All good so far!
The complete works of Washington Irving.
The Hobbit in Gaelic and a whole series of Jon Ronson books I was given for Christmas.
Why Nations Fail, by Daron Acemoglu & James Robinson
the deutscher stalin bio and misc fiction
Sarah Wynn-Williams - Careless People: A Cautionary Tale of Power, Greed, and Lost Idealism
I'm not a Facebook fan but the more I read the book the more I dislike them.
The author seems well-intentioned but I the overall feeling is that she was part of the system. I know it's difficult but she followed along enabling what the Facebook leadership wanted to do.
Rogue Protocol by Martha Wells, and I’m listening to the audio book The Demon of Unrest by Erik Larson.
