#foliobooks are known for their gorgeous #illustratededition . I haven't read this one yet, but I really love the idea of the Folio Society, that every book is made up with its own illustrations and not every book gets the same kind of illustrations. #litsyclassics @Bambolina_81

BarbaraBB Gorgeous! 7y

I loved The Glass Palace and am dying to read the Ibis trilogy - sumptuous writing. Peter Hoeg has a new book out which is on my TBR too. And how about this cover of 100 Years of Solitude! #foliobooks #FallintoBooks day 12 #GoldandSilver

Redheadrambles Oh my I just read 100 years and that Folio edition looks great - I assume it's illustrated inside ? 7y
batsy That 100 Years cover is a stunner! I loved Miss Smilla's Sense of Snow and cannot wait for Høeg's new book. 7y
Abailliekaras @LeeRHarry I'll let you know when I start the Ibis trilogy! @LeahBergen @Redheadrambles 😊 I'll post another pic from 100 years. @batsy I saw the new Hoeg at the bookstore the other day & didn't buy it - so restrained! (I *may* have bought some other books though 😉). 7y
Mamashep I need to get to the next book in the Ibis trilogy! 7y
Abailliekaras @Mamashep they're big books! I've just ordered the first one so I can make a start. 😊 7y

Sarah83 @rubyslippersreads Take a look at Amazon. I just had a view how much the book would have cost there. The price is quite nice ☺️ 7y

Sarah83 @DeborahSmall I found also a poem collection by Kipling. it's not pictured, because I wanted to ask you first, if you want to get it. It's also a Folio. 😘 7y

The Name of the Rose | Umberto Eco, William Weaver, David Lodge

Pickpick

Eco's debut novel still resonates with me. Solving the mysterious deaths of monks, exploring labyrinthine libraries and facing off against the Spanish Inquisition , all great fodder for an excellent period murder mystery which explores deeper issues such as the power of silence as control, and laughter as subversion. Excellent.
