Plenty of pandemic reading time this month, and a warmer than average January in Minnesota lent itself to longer walks. A Dune-o-riffic month, it was. #Januarywrapup

Ruthiella Three Dune novels in one month? Amazing! 😃 3y
BestDogDad @Ruthiella *well* finished - I had a pretty good start on Dune in December but once I got going on them they were hard to put down. 3y

Steven Hyden is a Radiohead fanatic, as you would expect a person to be to write a six-hour / 256-page book centered around a single album in a band's canon. He also spends time giving background on each of the five band members and explains why the work so good together and have been such a cohesive unit for thirty-five years. In short, this book is all things Radiohead, and as a fellow fanatic I loved this.
