Very nice! I sometimes find it difficult to stick to reading regularly (like currently…). But, I mostly read of a night time before sleep, since I find that the most convenient time.

I’ve been currently reading through The Edge Chronicles by Paul Stewart and illustrated by Chris Riddell

Do you mostly read scifi books or a bit of everything? The Lathe of Heaven sounds interesting.

One of may favourites is Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman.

If you haven’t seen them, yet. Chris Riddell’s illustrations of Alice in Wonderland & Through the Looking Glass are beautiful. Just reread both books with my 5 year old for the first time in years.

Ooo! Ill need to check it out! I love his illustrations and I think that would work fantastically with Alice in Wonderland

I bought another copy of Neverwhere illustrated by Chris Riddell earlier this year 😅

I read a little of everything to be honest, and right now I’m making an active effort to read more sci-fi/fantasy because I love the genre.

I haven’t read those yet. I will!

Also gonna recommend the Hitchhiker’s Guide Trilogy of Five if you haven’t read Douglas Adams’s masterpiece; different kind of book to what’s mentioned but it’s still nominally science fiction and is more importantly just huge fun.

I’ve read those, I agree they are so fun.

Neverwhere is awesome. I’m a huge fan of Gaiman. American Gods may be one of the best books I’ve ever read.

I watched the show before I knew it was based off of a book. I’ve been wanting to read it for a while, but it’s been in my backlog since. I’ll need to try get around to it… I’m flying to Norway on the 17th, I might try nab it before then

I’ve heard a lot about American Gods and I’ve wanted to read it since the first time I heard about it.

It’s a really good novel. Another Gaiman classic. It was disappointing to see what they did to the short-lived TV show.
