Current reading early June 2023

I’m nearly finished with the time travelling movie making scifi novel (it’s good!), so am looking ahead to what long fiction I will be reading next. Here are my main planned reads for early June 2023. Most of which are already underway. 1/ reread Little Dorrit by Charles Dickens; 2/ continue Patrick Troughton biography; 3/ continue family tale of two Tolkien brothers; 4/ continue Luther Arkwright graphic novel reread; 5/ read a rail travel book; and 6/ continue reading the large print Fall of Numenor book.

SHARP 2023

Just paid and fully registered for the SHARP book history conference which this year is streaming online via Zoom with recordings and catchup available. So good for chronic illness disabled academic me, who sleeps up to 18 hours a day now from progressive neuro disease. Also great for time zone differences, and zero infection risk. With luck I will be able to watch lots, if not always live.
