Favorite Books – February 2021

It belatedly occurs to me that if I’m going to be doing this monthly, I should add the year as well.

The standout book for February was definitely:

TO THE LIGHTHOUSE, by Virginia Woolf

The more Virginia Woolf I read, the more of a fan of her writing I become. She writes with such piercing insight into the human condition. This is a book where almost nothing happens – except in the middle section, where everything happens – and it nonetheless kept me riveted throughout.

Other books I very much enjoyed in February included DAWNSHARD and RHYTHM OF WAR by Brandon Sanderson, SUMMER OF SALT by Katrina Leno, THE BOOK OF THE UNNAMED MIDWIFE by Meg Elison, A VOID (originally LA DISPARITION) by Georges Perec, THE CALCULATING STARS and THE FATED SKY by Mary Robinette Kowal, THE TYRANT BARU CORMORANT by Seth Dickinson, and FANGS by Sarah Anderson.
