Location: UK		Hi Engelbrecht,nice to see you for your yearly visit! . As usual I havent even heard of most of your list.I see that lately you have been doing a dive into Tarzan books,rereads I assume. I am going to do mostly pre 1960s books next year,filling in gaps of books by authors such as Poul Anderson,Clifford D Simak, Lewis Padgett,as one,plus as Kuttner and Moore, J G Ballard,Pohl and Kornbluth and a host of other good old early stuff,mostly pulpy,but great fun. I also want to get back into reading urban fantasy. But it will be a year of self indulgence,not much delving into modern award winners. I'll be 75 in January,and I am going to just enjoy myself in the good old days. I am not really happy with the most modern stuff and styles to be honest,so a year of pulp and fluff will be fun!
Yes,Exploits of Engelbrecht was great fun,and it was your lovely avatar that attracted me to it in the first place.
Best wishes for another bumper pile of books to grab your attention in 2023. My amount of reading is lower than it used to be,but I still managed my 80 Pick N Mix target,but I have stalled at 91/100 of my Books Read in 2022 challenge. I've been reading far too many self published books which are not counted in my WWEnd tally. What with sorting Xmas,and Mr Dusty having spent the whole of this month glued to the World Cup,reading has been a bit difficult to say the least. lol.
