Two Months of Brain Food

My year of reading started off slowly as I was travelling on January and concentrating on enjoying and learning about the places we visited in Australia and New Zealand.

I have only signed up to one challenge, on Goodreads for 2026, where I have committed to reading 100 titles. 

In addition to the books listed below as read in January and February on GoodReads I read a fascinating history book that I purchased at a Museum bookshop in New Zealand. 

It was Founding Documents of Aotearoa New Zealand by Paul Moon. The publisher description states "The history of New Zealand is tracked through fifty key documents. Each document is explained and put into context, with illustrations." For this traveller who was ignorant about New Zealand's history that book was an excellent tutor. 

The remainder of the books I read were in the GoodReads database. I was rather generous in awarding five stars to four titles. They can be seen here https://www.goodreads.com/review/list/2580847?shelf=read
