Favourite Books of 2020
I haven’t actually been reading that much this year, but some books I particularly enjoyed are:
Beowulf by Rosemary Sutcliff, a retelling of the classic viking myth. Also King Arthur by the same author, epic and weirder than you expect.
The Steel Bonnets by George MacDonald Fraser about the reivers of the Scottish border, Alistair’s bandit ancestors.
The Cabaret of Plants by Richard Mabey about interesting and weird plant biology and history.
How do we Look and The Eye of Faith by Mary Beard, to accompany the Civilisation series. I love Mary Beard.
Favourite TV
The Crown, surely needs no explanation
Queens Gambit, drama about a girl chess champion
Classic Tom Baker era Dr Who
Poirot, ok some of these are re-watches
