About

The Librarian by Giuseppe Arcimboldo, 1556, oil on canvas,

Welcome to 1207Books, my blog about books (not to be confused with my blog about the news).

The bulk of this blog will be my reviews and comments on books that I have read since the start of the 2009th year of the Common Era.  This will include both fiction and non-fiction (though more of the later), recent books and classics, literature and light fiction.  The books are not selected according to any particular plan; they’re just what I am interested in reading right now and have available.  My interests include politics, history, biographies, philosophy, and theology.

For books that I have recently finished, see this page.  For books that are in my queue, which is subject to change, and to learn what I am reading right now check out this page.

Comments on any of the books are welcome—no matter how long ago the entry was posted.
