I didn’t do a very good job here. I only read 8 books and two of them were comic books, which I am able to read in one sitting. But I did read the classic, Dune. And I read the Handmaid’s Tale, another supposed classic. supposedly in the feminist style, and according to the hysterical, very appropriate for the Trump Era.
For my top book of the year I’m going to go with Say Nothing. It gave a real close up picture of the human damage of The Troubles. It was interesting to me because I have become less and less sympathetic of the IRA. I sympathize with the issues, but not the means. 20 years of the war on terror will do that to you.
Planning to spend more time reading this year.
