Just finished reading Legenda by @drjaninaramirez.bsky.social Truly one of the best books I've read, it's a real eye-opener.

Also thank you to Janina for a great talk at Norwich Playhouse. An absolute pleasure meeting you (being last in that long queue was worth the wait). Next reads purchased 👍
A picture of two books by Janina Ramirez, one is titled Julian of Norwich a Brief History and the other Riddle of the Runes.
