Books Sam has read in 2022: a thread. That's right, we're doing this again. I managed a book a week last year, so let's see how this one goes. Last year's thread is below.

@tomough My mum sent me a link to your article earlier, which felt *very* on the nose until I noticed the byline and understood xD

60. The Movie Doctors by Mark Kermode and Simon Mayo - my copy given to me by the good doctors some years ago for appearing on stage with them, but only now read. A fittingly loose conceit for a glossy book about films with some fine essays in. And we're done for the year.

59. The Monk Of Mokha by Dave Eggers - the immensely engrossing tale of Mokhtar, the man with a mission to bring Yemeni coffee to the world, and the hell he goes through doing so. Eggers always writes non-fiction with a fiction's verve, and so it is here.

@modaviau And maybe not quite for the reasons in the book, but: Queen, 1975ish, without a shadow of a doubt. Maybe one of the Hammersmith Odeon shows. It's a lot of fun thinking about what it would be, though

@modaviau Tweets need to be longer, reading it back I feel like that didn't capture how much I did really enjoy it! Very much looking forward to reading whatever you write next :)
