The Women by Kristin Hannah
Choke; Doomed by Chuck Palahniuk
Insomnia by Stephen King
I bought around 12 books on a whim. There are all about different Doctors/different companions. It's funny that no store sells a set of one series about one Doctor, just random books.
I also named my dog Donna Noble :)
Years 2019-2020 were the time I discovered the series and binge-watched it
The purpose was to unroll all possible consequences

Does it happen to you that you want to reward yourself with a new book, start browsing shelves for a light read in a bookstore, and one VOLUMINIUOS book grabs your attention? And you know the ghost of that book will haunt you?
Here it is: a three-volume THE FORSYTE SAGA
