Love it when the library showcases an indie publisher! (Bonus points as Charco Press tends to be in translation.)

Can’t be sure as I haven’t read The City And Its Uncertain Walls yet but it seems like double unicorns going into 2025 (look in the window, The Last Unicorn is!)

2 book covers are next to each other. The City And Its Uncertain Walls by Haruki Murakami and The Last Unicorn by Peter S. Beagle. Both seem to have unicorns featuring on the cover.

Re-reading one of my favourites since it’s nearly Christmas. I’ve almost recovered from my cold.

Doomsday Book by Connie Willis 📚

Since reading it last I’ve lived in Oxford and through a pandemic. (Have not managed time travel yet.) 🕰️
