Love the old Penguin editions! You have some interesting cover art there,as usual!

[@GenreBooks23]

Thanks!

My partner, Jilly actually heard Fred Hoyle lecture on the diseases from space thing.

[@GenreBooks23]

Nice, that would have been interesting to hear. I’ve been reading a few Hoyle novels in the last month.

[@RaynorReadsStuff]

One of the reasons I love these book hauls is that I’ve never heard of half the authors. Some of those covers are just fabulous and I absolutely love those Penguins 😊

[@GenreBooks23]

Thanks Debs

[@stuartgriffin1001]

You have a very impressive collection. I had not heard of many of the authors You mentioned. I also have sometimes bought 2 copies of the same book without realizing it

[@GenreBooks23]

No chance of that whilst I’m on a buying ban, but I think I’ll need to carry a list with me in the future..

I get it completely - my shelves are multi-stacked in layers as well, gotta take inventory now and then to remember what I own Against the Day shall be finished Thanks

[@GenreBooks23]

Good luck with the Pynchon!

Hello Gavin. Just checking in to say hello and I wanted to be sure to leave you a comment. Again, another wonderful video. Keep 'em coming!

[@GenreBooks23]

Thanks Julie!

The Macbeth spinoff sounds like fun.

[@GenreBooks23]

I would have loved to have been at the pitch meeting for it!

[@Montie-Adkins]

Ah, Cradle. I read that a long time ago. Good character stuff I recall.

[@GenreBooks23]

I’ve yet to tackle the Clarke/Lee books, but always up for reading more ACC.

Just a few random thoughts: Is "The Planet Buyer" about Donald Trump? Wouldn't have expected you to be a Kerouac fan. So is Roy from Roy Reads Anything. Perhaps there is a Beats event in our future?

[@GenreBooks23]

I’ll have to see if I still have any of my Beat books- they’re all at the other end of the country if I do…

Excellent comments. And he doesn't want the entire planet -- just Canada and Greenland. It would be funny if it wasn't so terrifying. - A friend in the U.S.

@@juliehughes1258 oh, I’m being silly. I thought he was just throwing these mad ideas out there so we’d talk about that rather than the cheaper groceries he promised all last year. Don’t mess with Denmark. Have you ever trodden on Lego?
