#reading I sorted through piles of unread books, but decided this ( recently bought second hand) would be best after the #Chinese #fiction -- #China #history -- So, as a side note, both #Batemans & #Charleston had shelves of interesting old books that no one can open & read ☹️ Kipling had stacks on India & most of the rest of the world actually. I wonder if they all read all their books?
