My letter in today's Guardian. Just asking, like. But I think we know the answer.

Woefully behind on my Reading Challenge- a target of 65 (as part of a bet) and only just at 40. I think I have read 2.7 books a week to make it 😬😬😬

First film of LFF2023- and it was really good. Beautifully performed and filmed with a cracking soundtrack, it’s a film that will haunt you for a while
