Obsessions include Henry VIII, early imperial Roman history, and diet and nutrition. Love books on paper.

The Histories of Herodotus translated by Tom Holland (nonfiction 2013)
Super fun translation. The story literally gallops along, despite Herodotus sometimes overwhelming us with place and tribe names, descriptions of rivers and such. The notes really help.
