I mostly buy ebooks rather than dead tree books these days, so I don’t have a nice stack of Christmas reading to show off, but I can screenshot my Calibre library screen, so here’s that.

I went and spent probably more than I should have this morning on a combination of stuff to read over Christmas, plus working my way slightly further through replacing old paperback favourites with ebooks (and in one case, both at once). Not sure which of these I’m going to dive into first; I’ve heard good things about both the first and last things on that screen, plus I usually love Guy Gavriel Kay books (which are almost always ‘pack tissues’ reads).

#Reading #This would be half of my Christmas present to myself for this year #Also #Yay for finally finishing off re-buying all the Mrs Pollifax books #I should do a full series re-read some time in the new year #I first got hooked on those in my mom's Reader's Digest anthologies #When I was in single digit ages #So I've been reading them for 40-some years #I enjoy the ridiculousness of them #Though like most espionage stuff that started out during the Cold War years #They are very dated by now
