Just finished Monty Python Speaks. The Complete Oral History by David Morgan which was really interesting, based on interviews he did with them from 1986 through 2018.
I went to the library to pick up the latest Richard Osman, but it was already checked out. So I was browsing through the new books and found Unbecoming a Lady: The Forgotten Sluts and Shrews Who Shaped America by Therese Oneill. It's fantastic, about women who shrugged off the conventions of society and became successful in their own way.
Also picked up Miss Felicity Beedle's The World of Poo by Terry Pratchett and Bernard and Isobel Pearson. I was a latecomer to Pratchett and Discworld, the first book I read was Snuff, which was one of his last. In that book Sam Vines' son is fascinated with a book called The World of Poo. This is that book, the adventures of a young boy visiting his grandmother in Ankh-Morpork and discovering the wonders of poo of all sorts.
