The Book of Dust | Philip Pullman
post image

It sat on my shelf for two years, but I'm finally diving in to #TheBookofDust! I am a huge #PhilipPullman fan so my expectations are fairly high.

P.S. I just re-read #AWrinkleinTime and...meh. I barely remembered it from 8th grade so I wanted to revisit it, as I know it is loved by many. I didn't hate it, but I expected more. I wanted certain ideas to be better fleshed out, and for it to be more climactic. I'll stick with #Pullman and #Rowling.

Friday night read. 📖✨🛶

I am really enjoying this book so far; it‘s such a treat to return to the world of #HisDarkMaterials. (I found out today that book two of #TheBookofDust trilogy will take place ten years after the original series and follows a 20 year old Lyra. I can‘t wait!!! Which is absurd because I‘m barely a third into this one and I‘m already thinking about the sequel 😂)

A little bit slow off the mark but once it got going this was a great book. I have always loved Pullman's Oxford and the people he shapes. This is an interesting start to The Book Of Dust trilogy and I can't wait for the next instalment with a bit more Lord Asriel please.

March was an excellent reading month! My favorites were Crooked Kingdom and The Book of Dust, both ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️; and I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed the adventures of Charlotte Holmes and Jamie Watson! Overall not a bad book in the bunch📚

This was the first Pullman-Book I read and must say it didn‘t disappoint! It was beautiful and the story developed alongside Malcolm and the river. I liked the magic and the friendships, La Belle Sauvage, the atmospheric writing and well I can‘t wait for how the story continues. I had a few minor issues with somethings and so I would give it 4,5/5 stars💫💫💫💫#thebookofdust #labellesauvage #philippullman

Taking place before HDM Trilogy this is the story of baby Lyra, and a boy named Malcolm, and sea of other characters.
A great flood comes through and Malcolm must get baby Lyra safely to her father. Being a child of prophecy she is highly wanted by several bad and evil people. But Malcolm just wants to get her to her father where she will be truly safe from all the horrible people chasing them down the river.
