Sending that Beowulf course to my husband - he wants to read again in January after going through it last year.

Also, I love Nadya's writing but really struggled Cultural Christians, as well.

Ross, love your lists here. I've been compiling end of the year lists for a while too. Here's mine from last year - https://thismortallife.blogspot.com/2023/12/my-favorites-in-2023.html

I love that you read Lewis's works over and over. I've started to do that with a few of his. I've also enjoyed and appreciated Comer, Crouch, Remaking the World, Digital Liturgies, and am a huge fan of Wendell Berry. I highly recommend Jayber Crow since you liked Hannah Coulter. It's probably my favorite modern fiction novel, with Lonesome Dove right behind it. From this list, I'm putting For Whom the Bell Tolls in my queue now.

Thanks for the intro to Jacob Collier. Going to start listening to him more. And I grew up on Billy Joel and actually did a good bit of re-listening earlier this year.

I'm sure you've made it further in The Crown by now and realize how great it is. It's favorite of my wife and me. I was bored by Mission Impossible, but Living and Past Lives were my favorites from last year. And Pig was so good!

Looking forward to your 2024 lists!
