I am posting one book per day from my extensive to-be-read collection. No description and providing no reason for wanting to read it, I just do. Some will be old, some will be new. Don‘t judge me - I have a lot of books. Join in if you want!

(Day 5…. A bit late….)
pickA brilliant analysis of the spread of Protestantism and its social impact on society, very readable for such a dense subject. The author makes it come alive by combining insightful analysis with personal accounts of some of the characters who played both large and small parts. I particularly liked the account of the rise of the Anglican faith and on the effect that the Reformation had on sexuality and the role of women in society.
Would you look at this VENUE?!?! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
William Dalrymple introducing Diarmaid MacCullouch on the Reformation in the most spectacular venue (that I hadn‘t actually attended anything *in* yet!!!).

Reading a very interesting section on how the Anglican community developed. Would like to read more about the English Civil War.
