I haven‘t read much fiction in a long, long time. I enjoyed the movies but wanted to get deeper into the lore, into the world building, so I picked up the first book in the Dune Chronicles. The cover art is beautiful.
Also I had a baby, so I haven‘t had much time to do really anything this year.
pickChapterhouse dune feels very different but still like a proper Dune book. I felt like nothing was happening and at the same time as if I was bombarded by concepts, ideas and quotes. There is a lot to like and a lot feels unnecessary or disjointed. Overall I still enjoyed it a lot. Check out our discussion about on on ep.68 of the Mind Duck Books podcast: https://bit.ly/44hLdX6

pickI first read Dune in high school. I remember that I enjoyed the strong female characters, the world building, and the sand worms;however, I was bored with the political and religious elements. Reading it over 40 years later, I am struck by how relevant the political and religious elements are today. I plan to read at least the next two or three in the series.
pickBook 5 of the Dune series really horny, bonkers in parts but still very enjoyable and thought provoking. There is no way I can say anything meaningful about this books is a few sentences. Check out our discussion about it on the Mind Duck Books Podcast ep. 67: https://bit.ly/3JgDcs3
April 13 #SpringSkies OneWordTitle I found this book really long, but I am so glad i read it before i watched the movie @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
Not sure if posting bookish memes is a faux pas on Litsy, but this was too good not to share
pickThe best book of the dune series, there I said it. This has to be one of the weirdest pieces of media out there that somehow still manages to completely make sense.
