Books of 2026

Starting in 2021, inspired by TheLitCritGuy, I kept running lists of books that I’d read on The Bird Site. As The Bird Site fell into inevitable decline, these book lists have migrated here!

In 2023, I started a Great C19 Reading Project, which I didn’t make as much headway through as I’d planned, so it is a continuing project!

This is a list of all the books I’ve been reading this year that aren’t on that list….

  1. Cursed Bunny (Bora Chung)
  2. Quantum of Menace (Vaseem Khan)
  3. The Documents in the Case (Dorothy L Sayers and Robert Eustace)
  4. Books (Charlie Hill)
  5. House of Names (Colm Toíbín)
  6. Nails and Eyes (Kaori Fujino)
  7. Tokyo Express (Seicho Matsumoto)
  8. The Ascent of the Detective (Haia Shpayer-Makov)
  9. Death, Disaster and Dynamite: A Grisly British Railway History (Rosa Matheson)
