🎶 Last song I listened to: The Hundred Days Offensive by 1914.
📺 Currently reading/playing/watching: I have several books on the go, but the last one I opened was All Quiet on the Western Front. Not really watching or playing anything at the moment. I recently tried to get back into Jedi: Survivor, but the things that annoyed me about it last time are still annoying so I didn’t get far.
🌶️ Sweet/Savory/Spicy?: All of them! I’m sorry, I know that’s a copout, food is just too good what can I say. At gunpoint I guess I would jettison spicy but it would suck.
❤️ Relationship status: Married with kids.
🤩 Current obsession: Recently read a novel (which I hope to review soon in a separate post) that has me obsessing over a) the OED and b) WWI. Star Wars is also still churning away in the background, as always.

I enjoyed it on its own merits, but really I’m obsessing over the themes it raised - it’s what prompted me to pick up All Quiet, and is also the reason that two of the other books on my pile right now are about the making of the OED. I’ve never read the Regeneration trilogy, but I just had a look and I think I’ll have to!
