Art Garfunkel famously keeps track of the books he has read since 1968. As of writing this, the count is 1327 (he does not add a review). I thought I could do something similar but I am adding short reviews of books as I read them, and I rake my brain over what I read over the last decades. This is, evidently, a work-in-progress: there are 566 reviews so far. Titles marked with a * are particular favorites.
Samuel Shellabarger: Captain from Castile
A swashbuckling yarn. I don’t know where the old, worn-out Danish softcover book came from, but I do remember reading it while home sick from school. Fun fact: at the time, I did not understand why Pedro chose the gipsy over the noblewoman. I think I realize the attraction now. So it goes.
