    Starting tonight on my Kindle, I'll read the short story Long Odds by H. Rider Haggard, which will be the last Alan Quatermain story I'll be reading for quite a while. After that, it will be the play Amphitryon (about 200 B.C.) by Titus Maccius Plautus (1916 translation by Paul Nixon).

    Non-Kindle reading tomorrow: The Scarlet Woman of Wall Street by John Steele Gordon.

    Actually, I can't read it. There's a glitch in my e-book that makes it skip pages, so I'm going to postpone reading it. Therefore, I'll be reading The Analects of Confucius (3rd-5th centuries BC) instead.

    Bit of a mix this month:

    I Am Thunder (Muhammad Khan) (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/...9-i-am-thunder)

    YA novel set in the UK


    Love, Hate & Other Filters (Samira Ahmed) (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/...-other-filters)

    YA novel set in the US

    Both Muslim-perspective ones and both quite enjoyable (and both had certain parts I wanted the authors to delve into and explore more)

    Banthology: Stories from Unwanted Nations (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/38492376-banthology)

    A collection of short stories by writers from the countries on the Trump administration's 'banned' list.

    An interesting mix - the alternate history one surprised me.

    The Golem and the Djinni (Helene Wecker) (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/...-and-the-jinni)

    Hopefully wrapping this one up tonight.

    Oh wow, a favourite childhood film of mine. My parents bought me some special edition of the film once for Christmas, and didn't understand when I didn't realise that it was a joke present :P

    Yeah it's been years since I last read Matilda, I intend to start reading it to my son when he reaches the age where kids want their parents to read them a bedtime story. I also bought B.F.G as well.

    Just finished Walter Mosley's latest: Down the River unto the Sea. Introduces a new P.I. character. Not sure if it will be a series like his Easy Rawlins or Leonid McGill books, but I hope so. And since this book is set in present day NY this character could potentially encounter Leonid.

    Oh my God, The BFG James and the Giant Peach was always a favourite of mine too.
