I'm currently reading Mayflies and it's a stunning, resonant read. I'm almost dreading what will ultimately happen and how I will react.

I too read Stoner last year and found it hard to describe to anyone. It really stuck with me and felt like a 'lost' American classic.

Keep up the great work 🤙🏻

How good is Mayflies? I keep buying it for other people. And yes to Stoner. What else did you enjoy this year? Thanks for the support Matt 🙏

I'm buying it for everyone too!

I loved All The Colours of the Dark - a real page turner, and Alan Moore's The Great When. Still Life by Sarah Winman was so evocative - I'm considering a trip to Italy off the back of it.

Finally (for here, not in terms of books I've read), I was fully immersed in Flow Violento by Scott Hulet. Beautiful writing.

Blimey, i feel uncultured over here with Jeff Stellings autobiography being my current read.
