Time to retire, or engage on an extended hiatus, from this platform of review.

This will free up more time to simply read and enjoy and less time with notes, records and review... so many shelves of books on my shelves to read in addition to the dozens I placed in storage for the time being.

Now I will be able to read my collection with no thought of posting anything related to their content.
Possibly, I may decide to do a 'Book Choice of the Year' type of thing for a special feature... ??? ... who knows?

Note: I may post one more soon, since it seems like the thing to do for a work built upon the writers Dissertation and dealing with a 'Reformation' style individual who completely altered Norway's social structure bringing the country in the modern age of industry and social reform:
"Rebirth of Norway's peasantry; folk leader Hans Nielsen Hauge" -by Magnus Nodtvedt
'
I will leave you with a short list if essential works... all of which should be familiar with:

-The Road to Serfdom by Friedrich Hayek (1944)
-The Origins of Totalitarianism by Hannah Arendt (1949)
-America Against America by Wang Huning (1991)
-Towards a Surveillant Society: The Rise of Surveillance Systems in Europe by Thomas Mathiesen (2013)
-1000 Years of Joys and Sorrows: A Memoir by Ai Weiwei (November 2021)
