Culture Editor's Best Reads in 2020

Out of the 122 books and plays I read this year, some classic, some new, some children's, some hanging around the house for quarantine: these are the ones that rated a 4 and 5. (3 and 3.5 are very respectable, but these are the ones I enjoyed the MOST as I read them!)
