B&N book purchases

Because of an article I read, "Book Publishers Warn of Supply Chain Delays for 2021 Holidays", I picked up these books (I also bought them because my library has been pretty poor lately with holds — I reserved one book back in March; I cancelled that hold last month).

The Age of Decadence: A History of Britain, 1880 to 1914 sounds interesting from The New York Times review. Clocking in around 900 pages, should be a nice long read, though it's probably less with the photos and footnotes. Looking forward to it.

The Last House on Needless Street has been out in the UK for at least six months. Was finally published here in the States in September. Stephen King's blurb plus a Guardian write-up made it sound purchasable.
