#Booksof2026 59 - The White Rose of Stalingrad by Bill Yenne

An interesting biography of Lidiya Litvyak, the Soviet WW2 fighter pilot, but it is a bit baggy in parts.
Might have worked better with a wider scope covering the entire Soviet female fighter pilot force.

The Illuminati Ball by cynthia von buhler

the book that got my reading mojo back after a shaky few weeks. A strange, gorgeous graphic novel inspired by a real 1972 Rothschild masquerade, all secret societies, gene spliced hybrids and stained glass style art.

20th Glad to have finally got around to reading Sudhir Hazareesingh’s “Black Spartacus”, a compendious biography of the brilliant, complex, humane and hubristic revolutionary, Toussaint Louverture, a man who still has much to teach us about the injustices of the modern world. #BooksOf2026
