[@Talking_Story]

You got a stack of some classics there. Can't wait to hear your thoughts!

[@NevsBookChannel]

Thanks John!

If you like Notes from a Small Island - Bill Bryson, you might like his book Tales From A Sunburned Country.

[@NevsBookChannel]

You’re right. I’d probably enjoy it more. I’m finding a lot of the UK references just a bit too obscure for me - there’s only so much googling I’m prepared to do

[@OnlyTheBestFantasyNovels]

Those are some good picks. Phantastes was interesting, I suspect you and Dutch Greybeard will have a lot to talk about. Fahrenheit 451 was a really fascinating book also.

[@NevsBookChannel]

Looking forward to them both. Thanks for commenting Rabin! (Is that how you spell your name?)

[@OnlyTheBestFantasyNovels]

@@NevsBookChannel No prob! Yes, that's how it's spelt.

[@mrwoodandmrtin]

The 1960's film of Bradbury's F 451 is funkadelic as well. Also, the 60's film " The Illustrated Man is brilliant.

[@NevsBookChannel]

I have vague memories of watching it as a kid growing up in the 70s. I’ll try to watch it again after reading it. Hadn’t heard of The Illustrated Man - I’ll look it up!

[@DutchGreyBeard]

Diverse TBR, Nev. I would very much like to buddy-read Phantasted with you. Let me know when you start. I can probably squeeze that in (hopefully).

[@NevsBookChannel]

Ok, will let you know. Finishing Legend tonight. Then probably read a sci-fi and Phantastes after that

[@DutchGreyBeard]

@@NevsBookChannel Alright. I am buddy-reading The Lies of Locke Lamora at this moment, which is a lot of fun. After that I can take a swim in my TBR-pool and pick whatever I like...
