- Sat, 14:20: The Golden Age, by John C. Wright Enjoyable space opera romp. Took a few chapters to get into and understand what was going on, but in fact by the end all had become clear. #nwbooks https://t.co/eQ3KFV0KwY https://t.co/B6dRbx5x54 https://t.co/paDRwsyJUG

- Sat, 14:50: Walking the Bible: A Journey by Land Through the Five Books of Moses, by Bruce Feiler It's a very interesting exploration of the intersection between geography, history, archaeology and personal belief. #nwbooks https://t.co/1ooC5NBEYV https://t.co/yJSV3g8TIw https://t.co/6NY0EBQJKJ
- Sat, 15:15: The Uncrowned King of Ireland: Charles Stewart Parnell - His Love Story and Political Life, by Katherine O' Shea (Mrs Charles Stewart Parnell) If you already have a background knowledge of the events, it's fascinating. #nwbooks https://t.co/5iMxJZpD4R https://t.co/fbmy9EFctw https://t.co/ppunNtAUlU
- Sat, 15:40: The Moving Toyshop, by Edmund Crispin The plot is convoluted and utterly implausible, but it is written with immense verve, energy and humour. Anyone who knows Oxford will appreciate the attention to local detail. #nwbooks https://t.co/xotpZyMlCs https://t.co/wZLhOlwBRa https://t.co/3ci9hAHVjn

- Sat, 16:05: Elizabeth the Great, by Elizabeth Jenkins Well worth searching out. The book is fifty years old, but stands up well in comparison with more recent works on the same subject. #nwbooks https://t.co/nX3hK0bNcc https://t.co/X8bhLUL0Fm https://t.co/wlFjSenD6m

- Sat, 16:30: A Doll's House, by Henrik Ibsen A rather good psychological study of a woman who is stuck in a bad marriage, infantilised by society, but doesn't actually realise what is going on. #nwbooks https://t.co/Fvme0R6OHL https://t.co/PawpJ0NXSl https://t.co/ivWJhheV21
- Sat, 16:55: Burghley: William Cecil at the Court of Elizabeth I, by Stephen Alford Interesting biography of Elizabeth's chief minister. Alford is excellent at the big picture. The book is beautifully organised. But it has flaws too. #nwbooks https://t.co/0ruTxobOOP https://t.co/Ieh4HxTHoY
- Sat, 17:20: Edward Gibbon and Empire, eds. Rosamond McKitterick & Roland Quinault Solid contributions, acknowledging Gibbon's pioneering genius, noting also his flaws, and updating us on how scholarship has moved on since. #nwbooks https://t.co/HSPp2d1xXg https://t.co/9CS8WiK5hW https://t.co/WDnM7xLifu
