Currently reading

The sun is shining! I really hope it keeps it up so I can spend my lunch break in the park.

I've been reading a lot of fiction recently and thought I should mix it up a little. So this week I'm tackling The White Man's Burden, William Easterly and The Kingmaker's Sisters, David Baldwin.

 The White Man's Burden is all about whether or not foreign aid is effective and if it does more harm than good.

I am really interested in the war of the roses, and have read a fair bit of historical fiction about this period, so have chosen The Kingmaker's Sisters to learn more about the influential Neville family.
