Starting to Think of Next Year's Reading


I've been thinking lately of what I will read next year, so I've started compiling a list.

So far:

The Unpleasantness at the Bellona Club, and Have His Carcase - by Dorothy Sayers

A Dickens novel (Little Dorrit or Our Mutual Friend)

Lord of the Rings (reread)

Kristin Lavransdatter 

Apologia  Pro Vita Sua (reread)

Bio/Study of Newman

The Poet and the Lunatics (Chesterton)

Some Mystery novels

Some Encyclicals


The two Sayers books would complete my effort to read all of her Lord Peter novels.

I'm leaning toward Little Dorrit of the Dickens novels

Among the encyclicals (I hope to read at least 2) would be Pope Francis's newest encyclical, DILEXIT NOS (ON THE HUMAN AND DIVINE LOVE OF THE HEART OF JESUS CHRIST


As for the mysteries, some Civil War era one, or maybe some about Scotland or Ireland.


More to come!


Pax et bonum
