Welcome to Litsy!

Did I get what was going on? No. Did I enjoy it anyway? Yes.
The third part in the trilogy was just as much fun as the other parts. We dig into the world of the old Hollywood and black and withe films. The plot is all over the place, but still fun to read. But I do get why these books are not as famous as other ones by Ray Bradbury. Sometimes they remind me a little of Douglas Adams..

Look what I found at an estate sale 😍

Signed first edition of Dinosaur Tales by Ray Bradbury 😀

Every story in this book takes you somewhere interesting.

Some of them are hits, some are misses.

His short story collections though are definitely worth the read because there are always a couple of gems.

There's a story in this that's going to be up there with my all-time favourites, "A Story of Love"

I recommend it, even just for that short story.

This was a good, quick read. I love his descriptions of food in these books. A nice sequel to Dandelion Wine.

I definitely liked this. But it's not really sticking in my brain, despite the fact that I finished it 2 days ago.

Checked out Speakeasy Books, a sweet new bookstore in our community this morning. I found a Bradberry book I didn‘t own! I love when new book shops pop up and I can‘t wait to visit this one again. 📚

Mixing poetry and science fiction wasn't such a bad idea. It's this book and Fahrenheit 451 that solidified Bradbury's reputation as a sci-fi author. He really didn't write that much of it. What he wrote, he wrote well, though. Modern exploration has long since made the Martian Chronicles rather implausible. But it's still a beautiful read.
