A brief review of the nonfiction book The CIA Book CLub: The Secret Mission to WIn the Cold War with Forbidden Literature by Charlie English. This interesting and well researched book looks at how banned books and other literature were an important part of the fall of the USSR.

A review for the quite funny nonfiction book Unruly: The Ridiculous History of England’s King and Queens by David Mitchell. I listened to the audiobook, which is narrated by the author and found it very amusing. A must read if you are interested in English history.
