#BookedinTime

These are book 2 and 3 of Perry‘s WWI series of 5. Featuring a family who each face the war in their own way with a bit of intrigue, a behind the scenes plot that would change the world and a murder mystery. I like the characters and there‘s enough tension to make me want to read the rest.

Cuilin I‘ll have to check this series out. ✅📚🎉 3mo

Is there such a thing a “moral courage”?

“In the end moral and political truths have to be shown on the body…‘
‘… [that] comes quite close to saying that the willingness to suffer proves the rightness of the belief. But it doesn‘t”.

I devoured this book. Part genealogical mystery, part loving mémoire, part philosophy of war and empire, it was shot through with Palin‘s intelligence and humor. Thanks to my cousin @barbwire for a lovely birthday present.

Three great non-fiction books?

What If?: Serious Scientific Answers to Absurd Hypothetical Questions by Randall Munroe (of xkcd)

A History of the World in 6 Glasses by Tom Standage

“coffeehouses were hotbeds of gossip, rumor, political debate, & satirical discussion. They were also popular venues for chess & backgammon, which were regarded as morally dubious.“
