Stopped by a Barnes & Noble and just wandered until something caught my eyes. Today‘s winners were the tagged book—I‘m not even sure I knew Bradbury wrote crime fiction—and a middle grade fantasy, the first couple of pages were very entertaining. Looking forward to the long weekend and some good reading.

TheSpineView Those look good. Enjoy 2d

The Halloween Tree | Ray Bradbury
post image
Pickpick

A timeless, imaginative tale that blends elements of fantasy, history, and coming-of-age storytelling. Bradbury's prose is lyrical and evocative, immersing readers in the eerie, magical atmosphere of Halloween. His love for the holiday is palpable, and the novel serves as both a celebration and an exploration of its deeper meanings. Categorized as a YA book, its exploration of mortality should resonate with older audiences as well.

#WhereAreYouMonday

This Monday finds me on the Planet Mars. It‘s only the second time I‘ve visited here in books, I think, having only previously read Andy Weir.

My song for #TuesdayTunes. W. Darling, whose real name is Hayley Gene Penner, is a underrated Canadian singer. I recommend her W. Darling EPs and her album People You Follow, which is under her real name.

Enjoyed these stories immensely. Pretty far out, though ... even for Bradbury! 😂

Andrew65 Will have to check this one out. 5mo
dabbe @Andrew65 It was very a la Stephen King. 5mo

From the Dust Returned | Ray Bradbury
post image

Every first Tuesday, our favorite local bookstore hosts Tunesday with a musician‘s circle. You can regularly hear the mountain dulcimer, banjo, tin whistle, guitar, mandolin, harmonica, limberjacks, violin, cello, Chinese erhu, & more!

My favorite part is the Celtic dance & clogging. And the books, of course. This month was also a Wassail celebration. And I drank a literary-themed Blood Meridian cocktail. Anyway, I‘m back now!

monalyisha P.S. I‘m really excited about the weird tagged Bradbury book! The Ernest Cline is my husband‘s. It‘s rare he shows interest in reading something, so of course I snapped it up faster than he could say “Never mind…” 😅 6mo
PathfinderNicole My son is a cellist and he was so excited to point out the cello in the background of your pic 😂 6mo
monalyisha @PathfinderNicole The cello‘s high on my list of instruments I wish I‘d learned how to play as a child! I know it‘s never too late, and my husband *is* a musician…but given my tap-dancing background, I think if I were to learn to play anything in my adulthood it‘d be drums. Or the aquaphone! That last part‘s sort of a joke and sort of not. 😅 6mo

monalyisha Disclaimer: I‘m home but I have IRL (virtual) book club. We‘re meeting about the tagged. More matches after the discussion‘s done! 6mo
BarbaraJean I have a copy of that same edition of the weird tagged Bradbury book! And I bumped it up on the TBR after my IRL book club read October Country and I learned that two of the stories in it connect with the characters in “From the Dust…” Although by “bumped it up on the TBR” I mean I might maybe read it in 2025 😂 6mo
AnnCrystal 👏🎶📚💝. 6mo
monalyisha @BarbaraJean See? This is why I matched us! Including that “bumped it up” logic. 😆 6mo
Chelsea.Poole This looks and sounds so cozy! Our library hosts Acoustic Night twice a month on Tuesdays also. 6mo
monalyisha @Chelsea.Poole That‘s a fun thing to do! Send me the website? (edited) 6mo
BarbaraJean @monalyisha Yessss! Compatible TBR logic is an important Auld Lang Spine match consideration. I must add: I also own that same edition of Bird by Bird. Also still unread. 😂 Also also: my husband is a musician and would have loved that musician's circle! Once upon a time I checked Armada out of the library for him because he loved Ready Player One. I think he read it and liked it. Hope your husband enjoys it! 6mo

I finally read this book (and in time for Halloween! I'm just a little behind in reviews). I grew up loving the movie and have been planning to read the book for a while. It was great fun reading lines that are word-for-word in the movie. The movie has slightly better storytelling. Bradbury does an amazing job as the movie's narrator. #Halloween #BookToScreen

Kenyazero Used for #OwlHouseReadathon Caleb: involves a spiriting away; and #GottaCatchEmAll mimiky: reread a favorite book (I counted it since it's a favorite story) @PuddleJumper 6mo
