I will edit this post later with a much larger response to Darzin's excellent questions, but I was working on my Zettelkasten notes so this one is fresh on my mind:
Of the 104 books I read (so far) this year, Rebecca Makkai's The Great Believers was my absolute favourite. Reading Vera Brittain's Testament of Youth in the same calendar year also gave me striking connections about Lost Generations and the pointlessness of the loss in both stories.
