An end-of-year round up of the best fiction and non-fiction books - and podcasts - of 2020.  All are my opinion and this is only a tiny selection of the really good stuff out there - but it's good.  Enjoy!  We have to stop consuming stuff... but we never stop imbibing ideas. So here are some to choose from - all links to Blackwells. For obvious reasons.
