  1. Nice list of books, Col. And I'm not surprised to see both Peter Temple and Mick Herron on the list. Hopefully this will be a really good reading year for you.

    1. Thanks Margot. No complaints with how 2020 is shaping up so far and hopefully it will include some more of both Peter Temple and Mick Herron.

  2. I agree with Margot, a very nice list of books. On that list, I like the Brian Freemantle and the Mick Herron the most. Probably because they are both spy fiction. I have not read Goodbye to an Old Friend but I am pretty sure I would like it.

    1. I do think you would enjoy both of those books. I hope you can cross paths with copies of both this year. I hope to read more of Freemantle's Charlie Muffin series at some point.
