Rumpole at Christmas by John Mortimer

I have read this for 2 or 3 Christmases now and I do enjoy it. it’s an entertaining read and makes me wonder why I have not read the Rumpole series of books yet. Something to change in 2026.

An enjoyable collection of stories with great humour and observations about the British justice system.

Village Christmas (and Other Notes on the English Year) by Laurie Lee

Enjoyable, I really like how Laurie Lee writes and his writing is very vibrant and beautiful. Lived a life and childhood I wish I would have had. The old days were the best days.

The book is in four parts each covering a season, and a chunk to do with London, it does cover Christmas but is not solely about Christmas. The title is misleading if you are expecting a book solely on Christmas.

I hope next year I finally get around to reading Cider With Rosie.

The Knight Cartoonist and Her Orc Editor, Vol 1 by Indo So

A nice bit of humour and fun plot. Very quick and easy read. A bonus it is free on KU (the first 2 volumes are anyway). Curious to read more of this and see where it goes. The cover is suggestive but the book is more to it than that. Similar to Monster Musume which is another series I am enjoying and 10 Volumes deep.
