So what are you reading this year 2021?

Read Dave Grohl's The Storyteller in two nights.......I'd say I liked about 80% of the chapters. You can only read so many paragraphs about smoking and drinking and name dropping. He certainly loves Paul McCartney! Anyway, good, not perfect, book.
I did pretty much the same thing and came to the same conclusion! 😂

Finished Cook's The Black Company. Still holds up, and quite obviously influential. A few of the turns of phrase haven't aged as well, but they are thankfully limited.

Now I'm reading Jonathan French's The True Bastards, the second in the Lot Lands series. At almost 600 pages, it's a bit longer than any book I've read in a while.

Got non-e copies of the last two Nero Wolfe books for Christmas (and the cook book) to finish my collection and finished my reread of the series. I was trying to read them in order, but missed the fact that the books with the collected novellas need to have their parts split up between the surrounding books. Guess I'll have to read them again...

I have just started Piranesi by Susanna Clarke, author of Jonathan Strange and Mr Norell - which is all it took to convince me I needed to read it. It's a much smaller work, oddly enough about a boy living in a mansion of infinite size.

How are you liking it? I keep forgetting that exists when it comes time to make a book list.
