Works for me. Had a lovely walk up Win Hill in Derbyshire last weekend. I'd recommend that if you are anywhere near there.

Goodreads tells me that I've now read 900 books since I started recording them in 2010 (though some predates that period). My 900th book was The Mermaid Of The Black Conch. An enjoyable read. I'll have to look back and pick out some favourites. What are you reading this weekend?

Just finished this. So much in there to think about, the debate about the justification for war an allegory for our internal struggle. Can be understood in many ways but the central idea of dharma, of selfless duty (?) is at its core. Next, the epic poem, The Mahabharata.

Fortunately, I absolutely loved Cry, The Beloved Country. A classic from SA writer, Alan Paton, I thought it was wonderful - understated, yet powerful. Again, anyone else read it? #devonbookhour
