Out of the Silent Planet | C.S. Lewis

@bookloo

Often overlooked and not nearly as popular as his Narnia series. I haven't read this series in a loooong time (it only gets a so-so from me cuz I remember it being kinda blah) and mostly picked it because I wanted to try my space background on a new app I got for my pictures. 😂

theresidentromantic Are these also about a metaphorical Jesus Lion, just in space? O.O 7y

OrangeMooseReads The covers are fantastic 7y

thegirlwiththelibrarybag I didn‘t realise he wrote SF! The background is great, what‘s the app? 7y

GrilledCheeseSamurai @theresidentromantic The religious overtones are definitely present. No lion this time. Alien God instead. 🙃 7y

GrilledCheeseSamurai @OrangeMooseReads Right? Mine came in a box set but I took them out cuz the box is pretty beat up. 7y

GrilledCheeseSamurai @thegirlwiththelibrarybag it's called Photo Director (for Android). 7y

Skyrimir Some of my favorite covers! I‘ve been meaning to read them again, but I do remember them being a little slow. 7y

brandymuses I like these but they are difficult to work up the energy to reread-especially Perelandra because the theology is immense in that one. 7y

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Pretty covers!!!! 💜❤️ 7y

parasolofdoom I loved the first two but could never get into the third. I think because the crazy terrains of the planets were what I liked. 7y

Les mis?rables | Victor Hugo

I want this beautiful book! I tried to read this once but just couldn‘t get into it. I may order it and if I can‘t read it still well then I will just have a pretty book. 😊

Christine11 I tried with this one too but it was just so huge and the writing is quite dense ! But it‘s always good to have another pretty book 😊 7y

shendrix413 I've struggled with reading it too! I was in the musical for crying out loud, I should be able to read it! So, I started it on serial Reader, it's going well so far, I'm 4% in and theres 7y

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks It is beautiful!!! 7y

Orlando: A Biography | Virginia Woolf

Even though a lot of what Woolf writes goes straight over my head I appreciate the beauty of her writing and how talented a writer she is.

One of my favourite quotes is by her - “There is no gate, no lock, no bolt that you can set upon the freedom of my mind”.

K is for Killer: A Kinsey Millhone Novel 11 | Sue Grafton

K is for Kinsey! Sue‘s daughter shared this picture and others on social media, and I liked it so much I made it my new home screen wallpaper. I especially love it because it also reminds me of a friend of mine who lives in SB and drives a VW bug. This book my favorite in the series but not necessarily a good one to read as a stand-alone.

It breaks my heart that I can use it for the #writtenbydeceasedauthor prompt. #NewYearReads

MatchlessMarie I saw an article recently about her passing that said “Because of all of those things, and out of the deep abiding love and respect for our dear sweet Sue, as far as we in the family are concerned, the alphabet now ends at Y." ??? http://torontosun.com/entertainment/books/there-is-no-z-sue-grafton-writer-of-po... 7y

rubyslippersreads You just broke my heart with that realization too. 😢 7y

Susanita @MatchlessMarie @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @rubyslippersreads so sad 😞 7y

Bookzombie What a great picture! Still so sad about her passing. 7y

Sleep No More: Six Murderous Tales | P. D. James

One of my all-time favourite authors. This book comprises six murderous tales with dark motives, published together for the first time.

KathyWheeler I trying to decide if I should read more of her stuff. I‘d read books I liked and then I read The Murder Room and hated it and have read nothing else since. 7y

Austen_Nerd I loved her Death comes to Pemberley, but, I haven‘t read any other books by her. The cover is lovely I am definitely going to have to try her other works. 7y

erzascarletbookgasm @Austen_Nerd I loved her early mystery novels featuring Adam Dalgliesh. 🙂 If you like murder mysteries, I highly recommend them. Not police procedural types but more of the ‘whydunnit‘. 7y

Austen_Nerd @erzascarletbookgasm Thank you, I love 💕 murder mysteries and I will add her works to my tbr pile 7y
