I finished reading: Hamnet by Maggie O’Farrell 📚 5 stars. Exceptional book. Immersive, very well-written, and heartbreaking. Looking forward to the movie adaptation.

Finished reading: Killing Commendatore by Haruki Murakami 📚 4 stars - one of Murakami’s better novels. While it contains (or repeats) several of the motifs that he often employs, it is well-written and compelling.

Finished reading: Dragonwatch by Brandon Mull 📚5 stars Fantastic intermediate fantasy book

I finished reading: The Castle of Llyr by Lloyd Alexander 📚 3 stars, probably not quite good in reality, but the nostalgia is real.

Finished reading: Dune Messiah by Frank Herbert 📚 3 stars. Herbert over-estimated how much his readers (or me anyway) would be interested in the political plotting of the first half of the book. However, it had a really strong, memorable ending.

My first time to re-read the book since the 80’s.
