Dr. No | Ian Fleming
post image

"Morning, Armourer. Now I want to ask you some questions.‘ M.‘ s voice was casual.
‘First of all, what do you think of the Beretta, the .25?‘
‘Ladies‘ gun, sir.‘ M. raised ironic eyebrows at Bond.
Bond smiled thinly."

James Bond has to trade his beloved gun for a Walther PPK 7.65mm and save the world from Dr No who wants to #RuleTheWorld courtesy of help from the Russians. Tough break, Bond.

#TBRtemptation post! Any James Bond fans in the house? I thought so, look at all of you 😎👍🏻. Well, here's the dapper dude in comic strip form--classic comic strip form. I would not mind showing this off in the 'ole abode 👌🏻! I mean, how often can you get your hands on original, classic strips from back in the day in any format? Right? Typical of me 🙄: I want! #blameLitsy #blameMrBook 😎

jmtrivera That looks awesome! 8y
ChasingOm This is going on my Amazon gift list for my boyfriend's birthday, which isn't until July! 😄 8y
Dogearedcopy Here! A few years ago, @lithousewife ran the #shakennotstirred audiobook challenge on her blog: Participants listened to the audiobook, then met once a month to talk about it on Twitter, then watched the corresponding movie together and commented via tweetchat! It was a lot of fun, and I gained an appreciation for 007 😎 8y

Live and Let Die | Ian Fleming
post image
Mehso-so

Not my favorite Ian Fleming Bond book, but it is my favorite copy because it's a souvenir from #shakennotstirred signed by Simon Vance himself. He made listening to the whole series fun, not to mention the Twitter viewing parties.

Dogearedcopy Oh! But this is the novel where we learn that Fleming's Bond & Leiter are not as immune to the vicissitudes of the spy trade as are their Hollywood counterparts! And voodoo! And sharks! And Bond Girl Jane Seymour as Solitaire! :-) #shakennotstirred 9y
LitHousewife Very true, but it's far from Dr. No and On Her Majesty's Secret Service, which are by far my favorites. 😍 #shakennotstirred 9y
bermudaonion That covers embodies everything I dislike about James Bond. 9y
Dogearedcopy LOL, 'Live and Let Die' isn't my favorite either (It's a toss-up btw 'Casino Royale' & 'From Russia with Love.) The whole series was bizarrely uneven, and each novel on itself had something to like and dislike! For this one, I liked the Jamaican setting & Fleming's descriptiveness of the waters :-) 9y
LitHousewife You definitely need to look past the sexism if you're going to read Bond novels, @bermudaonion . 9y
