70. When the Earth was Green, by Riley Black, 2025, non-fiction popular palaeontology.
71. Inventing the Renaissance, by Ada Palmer, 2025, non-fiction history / historiography. Very good so far, apart from one typo in which Jacob Burckhardt lived to the age of 169. Nice.
72. Book published in the 1920s, read for a reading challenge. Not a great choice, apart from the fact it's short, but I've read most of the usual suspects from that decade. I probably should've asked for recs of less well-known books, or re-read something I already know I like.
