The Bright Sword by Lev Grossman. A Camelot tale, and told in the grand old style, with occasional breaks for the life stories of each knight. But it has a recurring and very modern theme of empire -- the clash between the Romans and the Britons, the new efficiency and old magic. It's been a while since I felt fully immersed in a novel like this.
I’m halfway through Bird Milk & Mosquito Bones by Priyanka Mattoo and it may be my favourite read of 2024 🤌🏼
Oh, what a great feeling!

Full immersion: that’s what it’s all about!
PRECIOUS BANE, by Mary Webb. It should be shelved with classics. Transporting!
Oh I have Brian in my TBR (physical pile not imaginary 😂) so will get to it next thank you!
So many good people and good books!!
