Years of Reading

This year, I read 21 books and discovered seven new authors.

I finally managed to read The Past is a Foreign Country by David Lowenthal, a book I had wanted to read for at least five years. Lying in bed, reading, and reflecting on various memories and emotions from my past, I felt like something clicked in my mind, making it easier to think about certain parts of my life. I'm also completely happy with the new series by Макс Фрай, which is unfolding before my eyes.
