Book tastes

I like fantasy and science fiction. I read a fair amount of crime & thrillers. I like readable history and books about other places (as in not too heavy duty or formal). Taking a look at my 'finished in 2023' or 'completed' collections will give an idea of things I've finished recently and how much I enjoyed them (less than 3 stars was a real struggle to finish or I didn't like it when I had).
During the year, most of my books tend to be bought 2nd hand or in audible sales so aren’t always the latest releases, the exception to this are some of the ones I've borrowed from the library.

Don't get this!

Please avoid political or celebrity biographies unless they are mentioned specifically in my wishlist.
I don't read much by way of romances, so again, unless you're convinced it's an absolute winner or it's in the vein of something that I've given 4 or 5 stars, it's probably better to avoid this.

Other notes

Please could you pick paperback editions – I find it difficult to read when balancing the weight of hardbacks now.
Feel free to take a look at my Wishlist for things that have caught my eye over the last year or so as things I might like to try, but don't feel confined to it.
Books that I already own but haven't got around to reading yet are listed in both my 'To read' and my 'books on ipad to be read' collections.
I have started reading Terry Pratchett's books commencing back at the beginning - if you choose something by him please see the Wishlist for the next titles I need as I own quite a few titles already.
