Flashback to 2020: new books read

[melreads]

This is books that I had not read previously, only. I'm a big re-reader so I keep a separate list for that. I don't usually feel any need to push myself on numbers since I read plenty anyway, but in 2020 I apparently had said that I would read at least one more (new-to-me) book than last year, so the goal was 18, and I had noted on the paper list that I got there in May. I believe I had a Kindle Unlimited account for part of the year, so that influenced what I was reading (an awful lot of various mystery series! I know that's where the "Lady Violet" bunch came from, among others).

1. Winterkeep
2. Star Wars: Aftermath
3. Silent in the Grave (Lady Julia series)

Also I had a little list on one side of the page that says: "Things I read so long ago I don't remember them" - I assume that means things that might as well be on the new-books list, except that I actually did read them back in the dawn of time! (But you notice I didn't actually put them in the count, so I imagine they'll be on the re-reads list when I get to it.)

Grant Moves South
Grant Takes Command
Coraline
The Alienist (which I think I read when it was first published, so probably 2006)
