Good Reading

As Jools Holland counted down to midnight on New Year’s Eve, I was counting down the remaining few pages of my fiftieth book of the year, which I finished with a couple of minutes to spare and so completed the 2015 reading challenge – not only 50 books read but ticking off the 50 criteria designed to add variation and novelty; on reflection it succeeded in that aim but now, a few of days into 2016, I am back in my comfort zone and picking my reads unrestricted.
