HEY WHAT
2021 Books
This was a decent year for reading admittedly boosted by re-reads of low quality romances and fantasies.
My favourite book of the year was Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie but that was an audiobook.
Of the books I physically read I would say it was A Deadly Education by Naomi Novik.
