Almost Sixty Years of Reading

Mainly novels, with a few non fiction and plays - from when I first learned to read through to those read with my grandchildren and a lot in between. I have listed series where possible and otherwise limited authors to a maximum of 4, except Shakespeare. Otherwise, I would have read several hundred more books.
