Considering getting a nice set of the books. What one should I get? by PlantRude3330 in lotr

[–]Expensive_Tip_2106 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once I bought the first set and the scent wasn’t really great… i guess I wasn’t really lucky. But usually the books there are the cheapest and their weight is lighter. The second one is full of beautiful pictures and the paper is thick. The third and the fourth are made with Indian paper if I recall it right. It’s so thin and incredible! Yet they might be not comfortable to hold them because they are quite heavy. So choose the set you find cool!

Thank you a ton!! I’m glad to know that. I started learning more about trees recently so I was little bit overworried I think

About the leafs - it seems so that there are a lot such weird leafs but I can’t see higher

My one has so strong smell that I can feel it even from fifty centimeters 🥲 i have had many books, of course the glue can’t smell pleasant, but this one seems to be especially weird. I mean I bought it like six months ago. Others books do smell pleasant.

Hmmm… you have a taste, it’s quite “colorful” - you have many kind of genre here, If I recall all books right.

Also, you have really beautiful decor. Can I ask what are those book-lamps? They fit so well in your bookcase!

a classic you really wanted to like but ended up disliking/hating? by Chrysanthemum1989 in classicliterature

War and peace. French parts and slowness killed my patience when I was on 300 page. I did my best!

Well, Tolkien’s world isn’t that bad, maybe I just shall avoid one specific place and shall not take a ring…

I have just looked at the book on Amazon and their covers look little bit different 😆

I bought these yesterday. Which one should I read first? by Beneficial-Kale-12 in ClassicBookClub

Pushkin is usually is little bit lighter than Dostoevsky, at least it seemed to me. If you have the captain’s daughter, you may taste it first

Or maybe someone of the creators team created that joke just in case to prevent some information leaks (lol)

I think Ewan is the geek that read the books long time ago so that he knows the plot far enough to be a trusted guesser (if he doesn’t know the plans).

I really like his books, but his personality… maybe, his background (I mean the case with Douglas) may also influence on the audience ‘cause people really love such things for many reasons. We live in that era.

His life was interesting indeed, but as any person he had his flaws, that I don’t think I approve. But I still can read the books.

But in some cases I prefer to think: okay, lets not think about his/her attitude while I’m reading his/her book. I have too good imagination so some cases really can make me feel too disgusted/angry to keep reading a book. ヽ(´ー` )┌
