- Fri, 14:48: Erewhon, by Samuel Butler The writing is stodgily Victorian, enlivened by the na�vely devout narrator who thinks the Erewhonians are the Lost Tribes of Israel and wants to export them to Queensland to make them Christian. #nwbooks https://t.co/lKzB2igL1E https://t.co/loHeNwwOlj https://t.co/jMteBnd8zz
- Fri, 15:17: Sevenacide, by Robert Shuster A set of stories trying to link horror tropes with rugby, not always with great success. #nwbooks https://t.co/C8J1UPtGxE https://t.co/Uy8juDmxdq https://t.co/qzClzwDkg8
- Fri, 15:47: Who’s Next: An Unofficial and Unauthorised Guide to Doctor Who, by Mark Clapham, Eddie Robson and Jim Smith Authors acknowledge Cornell, Day and Topping’s Discontinuity Guide which seems eminently fair; it’s much better. #nwbooks https://t.co/Rv1K7GIq8I https://t.co/Cmz8W7LmXU https://t.co/M4GknX8Tyi

- Fri, 16:17: Non-Stop, by Brian Aldiss Aldiss’s characters know that they are on a long journey but very little else, and this allows Aldiss to misdirect us so that the eventual conceptual breakthrough is all the more dramatic. #nwbooks https://t.co/oV5NaoZtJn https://t.co/ptteZFQAEW https://t.co/MtX7fbYBGF
- Fri, 16:46: The Invention of Happiness, by Brian Aldiss Several dozen short-short stories, two or three pages each.

- Fri, 20:48: Outside In, ed. Robert Smith? [sic] “160 New Perspectives on 160 classic Doctor Who stories by 160 writers”. A refreshingly different take compared to other guides I have read.
