vivdunstan: Photo of some of my books (books)
[personal profile] vivdunstan
Here are my main current reads and expected to be for the next few weeks. I’m finishing off one novel, Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin, and shortly starting Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries for my book club. Also in pure fiction I’m reading the manga version of The Count of Monte Cristo. Which does have quite a challenge storytelling wise to condense that plot down. It’s interesting to see some of the choices they’ve made. In fictional non fiction I’m reading the large print Tolkien book The Fall of Numenor, and the Obverse Books Black Archive book about the recentish Flux series of Doctor Who stories. And finally I’m still reading and enjoying John Green’s The Anthropocene Reviewed.

A grid of 6 book covers, 3 on the top, 3 below. Tomorrow etc. has bold text against a famous Japanese style wave backdrop image. Emily Wilde’s Faeries book shows a book open and brightly coloured plants and fruits twining around the page. The manga Monte Cristo book shows a striking male figure in front of a looming castle backdrop. On the bottom row the Numenor book has a mainly black cover with what looks like the great destructive wave in blue and a tree image. The Flux Doctor Who book cover is mainly a brightly multi coloured mix of coloured flames and thread like things. And John Green’s book has a vibrant red, orange and purple cover.
