Sep 2017

A few science fiction books, I re-read the entire The Cat Who series since I finally got her last book. 1491 by Charles Mann. Working on 1493 by him.

In the mail yesterday I got the entire Madeline L'Engle A Wrinkle in Times series (which I haven't read since they first came out and I never read the two that were added to the original trilogy) and the first book of the Outlander series. Oh - a travel book about England, Wales and Scotland for some future trip.

Sometime after I finish those I will read 1421 and 1434 both by Gavin Mezies. The first is about the Chinese discovering America and the second is about a Chinese fleet that sailed to Italy. I should be able to finish all of those before the end of the year.
