Welcome to Litsy!

This is a rather large book, that on top of a very busy several weeks, is why it took me a while to finish. But Walter Moers did not disappoint, just like with Captain Bluebear, I was transfixed by this adventure. Rumo is a different character entirely, unlike Captain Bluebear who finds himself in crazy predicaments seemingly by accident, Rumo runs toward them headlong with the intent to either prove himself, to survive, or protect his friends. ⬇️

Midnight was very cozy with my book in my lap 😻🐈‍⬛

Love reading on the beach ❤️

Kids have been on summer break since last week, they‘re sleeping in and I‘m enjoying some me-time before CrossFit 😁

As much as I loved the last book I read, there were a lot of sad moments. I‘m in need of a palate cleanser and since “The 13 1/2 Lives of Captain Bluebear” did that for me, I‘m finally going to read book 2 in the Zamonia series. I read that you don‘t have to read these books in order, but it‘s ideal because there are surprises that are more enjoyable when you‘ve read the previous books 😁

Found at my local goodwill. I so rarely see his books loose in the wild. One of my all time favorites is The City of Dreaming Books. I did not enjoy the sequel The Labyrinth of Dreaming books nearly as much though. It will be interesting to see what I think of this one.

Everyone else seems to have a blue copy of Rumo and I‘m over here chilling with my green one!

What a day...

Have you read some of the Zamonien books?
I have tagged my all time fave!

I finally found a used hardcover copy of this! I now have all the Zamonia books that have been translated ♥

Rumo can choose a weapon and takes a #sword that can talk to him telepathically. Things get even weirder when a second, bloodthirstier voice awakes in the sword.
In the picture on the right you can see that both voices have different fonts in the print.

Phew! I finally gathered and stacked some pretty greens and blues for @elkeo ! I think this has run its course? But if someone still wants to do a #bookcolortag please do! Something shiny! 😄 #colorstacking

I haven't even attempted to keep up with the #ReadJanuary photo challenge, but I have been watching. And at the #endpapers prompt I felt the acute need to show you all the endpaper (and frontpaper, I suppose) maps from Rumo's adventures, and the swirling chaos that is my complete Lovecraft stories.

#Booktober #GreatOpeningLines This looks like a children's book, but it really isn't. It's illustrated craziness for grown ups who have retained the wild imagination of their childhood. @RealLifeReading

This book takes you back to Zamonia, the world of Capt Bluebear to follow the adventures of the Wolperting Rumo who is destined to become the greatest hero of Zamonia. It's zany & #fullofadventure. #booktober

Day 11: A selection of #bluebooks for #somethingforsept. A few have been favorites, maybe I should buy more blue books. 🤓📖
