2026.Book31 - Nonesuch (Spufford)

 Excellent, not too many things as some have said. Last three words are a copout but maybe that's to be expected from Spufford, not exactly one to bite bullets

2026.Book30 - Riccardino (Camilleri)

 Excellent finale

2026.Book29 - Dead Man's Walk (McMurtry)

 Very good prequel 

2026.Book28 - Cain (Saramago)

 Very good, funny, angry, more-truthful rewrite. (Book of nonsense)

2026.Book27 - Everybody's Perfect (Walton)

 Very good, chill, interesting world 

2026.Book27 - The Cook of the Halcyon (Camilleri)

 Another good one, more action 

2026.Book26 - Pillars of the Earth (Follett)

 Pretty good historical epic. Eventually repetitive. Forgiveness of Remigius was the highlight 

2026.Book25 - Don't Tell Anyone The Secrets (Williams)

 Interesting memoir; more life than music but Williams is more of a poet

2026.Book24 - Peace is Every Step (Hang)

 Inspiring 

2026.Book23 - The Long Fall (Mosely)

 A bit awkward, infelicitous phrasing. Good story.

2026.Book22 - Hunger Makes Me a Modern Girl (Brownstein)

 Really good memoir (Sleater-Kinney)

2026.Book21 - The Night Manager (LeCarré)

 Very good, lots of characters, plot

2026.Book20 - Out of Sight (Leonard)

 Good plot, good characters 

2026.Book19 - Leech (Ennis)

 Lots going on, all of it pretty good

2026.Book18 - Pretenders to the Throne of God (Tchaikovsky)

 Another good one in the Tyrant Philosophers series. Strong characters 

2026.Book17 - The Sicilian Method (Camilleri)

 Another good one, comedy, romantic cliffhanger

2026.Book16 - Sin Killer (McMurtry)

 Pretty fun, mix of comedy and action, title character becomes secondary pretty quickly

2026.Book15 - The Safety Net (Camilleri)

 Another good one, somewhat lower stakes

2026.Book14 - The Alienist (Carr)

 Pretty good, kind of pointlessly lurid, not great writing, but fast moving plot 

2026.Book13 - Because Internet (McCulloch)

Very interesting. Internet as research source for informal language
