I'm certain it will be 2022 before I know it. I am excited about this for two reasons: the US Census for 1950 will become available and the adoption records of my Dad's half-brother, Albert, will be 100 years old and therefore accessible. How easy that will be remains to be seen.
I read another six books in November, two of them (*) non-fiction. The Philip K. Dick book became the film Blade Runner, which I remember seeing but nothing about electric sheep stuck in my mind at all. I found it interesting to see how many bits of modern technology the author accurately predicted. Thankfully, we do not all (yet) buzz about in hovercars. The Appeal was particularly clever.
