2020 book 208

 Victoria Goddard's The Hands of the Emperor

Did I reread this book once already this year? Yes. But is it reassuring right now to read a book about a guy working from within the government to make the world a better place for everyone? Also yes. I mean does this book need three lengthy scenes about the protagonist's family not understanding what his job actually is, no, the first two would suffice, but it is awesome to read about how everything comes together in terms of insider/outsider culture. I also like that this is about a bunch of middle aged dudes who care  about each other. Perfect thing to get lost in right now.
