I was also trying to read Dickens in the period since my last update (hence why February was a poor month) but I was struggling with it and hopefully I can get back to it some time.

I really liked what i finished in the 2 months, particularly the memoir from Paris Lees about her teenage years prior to transistioning.  Both the short story collection from Oksana Zabuzhko and the novel from Filip David were very good.

Siimo van der fietspad

1. Of Mice and Men - John Steinbeck.

2. The Burning Chambers - Kate Mosse.

3. Early Riser- Jasper Fforde.

4. Of Ants and Dinosaurs - Cixun Liu.

5. The Word Exchange - Alena Graedon.

6. Sixteen Ways to Defend a Walled City - K J Parker

7. The City of Tears - Kate Mosse. Sequel to The Burning Chambers and moves the story of the Reydon-Joubert family several decades into the future. Quite a lot of family and religious politics. Almost two novels in one as there's a six year hiatus half way through.

8. China: An Epic Novel - Edward Rutherfurd. Well, at 750 pages and a narative span of 75 years it certainly doesn't fall short of 'epic'. Multiple characters, time periods and locations interweave around actual historical events in China from the Opium Wars to the Boxer Rebellion and the reign of Cixi.

9. Swordfish: The Story of the Taranto Raid - David Wragg. I'm going to count non-fiction here as well (in fact it would add about five more to my list) but really there ought to be a novel or even a film about this real-life bit of daring-do during 1940. Taranto ought to be as well-known as the Dambusters raid, especially given that it involved flying obsolete open biplanes, which were slow and very vulnerable, off a carrier in the middle of the sea in the middle of the night. The book also gives a great explanation of the attitudes towards naval aviation before and during the war and the effects that the raid had on the rest of its course (spoiler alert: sinking half the Italian navy made a good bit of difference to the Allies in the long term both directly and indirectly) as well as the experiences of the men involved. Plus, the Fairey Swordfish is one of the greatest underdog machines ever built and deserves the affection it holds today.

Have you read any other of Haig's books?  If not, I recommend How to Stop Time, The Humans, and especially The Radleys.  Love love love that book!
