The Dark Forest by Cixin Liu. 2nd book in the Three Body Problem trilogy. Finding it slow-going at present. #BookSky

We have no idea what this little horror has been up to last night to get himself into this state. He is naturally a ginger & white cat, there is no black in his fur at all.

A ginger & white cat with dirty blackish grey smudges over his nose, mouth, paws and front. From his mid forehead, back over his ears he is almost completely black, like an older man with a very bad dye job.

View of the top of the cats head, black at the front of the head and around his ears with some of his natural ginger colouring showing lower down his head, but more black marks over his neck and back.

Two pictures. The first shows Keane Reeves from the back & is captioned “Keanu Reeves”. The second shows a picture of Keanu walking towards the camera & is captioned “Keanu Comes Back”.

I thought that was just one of those scurrilous royal rumours.

Promotional banner attached to a lamppost shows a young woman looking into the distance. The text on the banner says “Queen Mary. Made Different.”

Morning (or afternoon by now). Just at the very beginning of The Three-Body Problem which has been sitting in my “to be read” mountain for some time. Got two long train journeys tomorrow so hoping to make some headway.

Cover of Gormenghast by Mervyn Peake. And a beautiful cover it is too, with ethereal sunshine lighting up dusty, ancient stone steps leading up to a distant door beneath a leaded window. More light shines through the door and beyond that we can glimpse further steps and arches and doorways, stretching away beyond our field of vision.

Just finished reading this & now I’m going to have to come off FB. It’s been mostly crap for ages anyway, but there are some people on there I love & only connect with there. Getting off WhatsApp is going to be a bigger problem since it’s genuinely useful.

Cover of The Lord of the Rings by JRR Tolkien. Single volume paperback edition with picture of Gandalf with his staff striding forward purposefully on the cover.
I originally read it in 3 hardback editions which I still have. And yes, it’s a cliché having LotR in this list, but it’s the truth.

Cover of The Chrysalids by John Wyndham. Cover shows a strange, green, alien looking being dressed in what seems to be a soldiers uniform holding some kind of weapon. God knows why as that has nothing to do with the actual story.
