18th book of the year
An old biography of Messi I found in a charity shop. Obviously out of date but interesting to look back at how Messi was viewed 13-14 years ago

Another Discwotld book, the 17th in the series. In large part, exactly what you expect from Pratchett. Funny, entertaining, with many 'what ifs' from hour world taken into another

First read this excellent book by @simonkuper.bsky.social many years ago. Re-reading it now, it's a fascinating series of snapshots of almost a bygone era. So much has changed since then that it might be as fascinating to re-vist them all today

The 16th Discworld novel. Much better than the last couple of Discworld books, a very amusing tale featuring the absurdities of many 20th music cultures

Another SF classic. One of those that amazes me how well it stands up today given that it was written in the 1950's

The 15th discworld book, the usual Pratchett stuff but lacked a little for me. Decent, but not his best work

3 years ago (give or take a few days) I was at one of the greatest sporting events I've been at. Hoping for a similar result later today #Lionesses #WEuro2025

A decent read but doesn't really say anything new. It's essentially someone looking back and reminiscing now he's the only one left.

@jonawils.bsky.social is a great football writer and this is his 1st novel. A good story but while reading it, it felt like he had a football book he wanted to write but couldn't, so decided to disguise it as a novel. And sadly it didn't work for me because it felt like that

Another Discworld book, the 14th of that series. The usual amusing tale from Pratchett but for me it was just more of the same, good but nothing new. The first in that series for a while thats felt that way

This is a behind the scenes look at the first 7 years of Guardiola's time at @mancity.com. A lot in here and some fascinating detail. Marti Perenau obviously has incredible access but the question always lingers about what has been left out to protect that access?
