What are you reading in January 2018?

I am currently reading Bread For All: The origins of the Welfare State. 

Usually I go into Waterstones bookshop and read all Bernard Cornwell's swords and whatever fiction for fun and free. But once a year I buy a book by way of an admission fee and this year I ended up with Chris Renwick's little effort which was well worth it, particularly since it had been remaindered and was going for washers.
