My favorite bookstore is doing free local home deliveries & I wanted to support them so I got these 2 books. Heard great things about both! During these trying times, please help support small businesses if you can. * #funaekreads #funaekbooks #instabooks #instareads #pugsandbooks #kenliu #thehiddengirlandotherstories #sharksinthetimeofsaviors https://www.instagram.com/p/B9ujGPqAN9d/?igshid=1wlkdcp9nmq04

Cixin Liu - Death's End (2010, translation 2016 by Ken Liu) The final volume in the monumental trilogy Remembrance of Earth's Past, this concludes the series which manages to be both intimate and cosmic in scale leading us from the Trisolaran invasion all the way to the end of the universe as we know it... It's really hard to describe the series, each book works kind of independently as the central characters shift, but they are intimately related and you wouldn't be able to understand one volume without reading the previous one. The particular talent of Cixin Liu is his ability to make these grand scale stories full of physics problems and spanning centuries of speculative science while at the same time keeping the reader personally invested in the story. It all feels very strange at the start, but eventually it starts making sense as it starts getting into focus. This is probably the best of the three volumes, each better than the one before, it is also the longest at over 700 pages, but it is a fantastic ride, with a great woman protagonist. A definite recommend.

Hello everyone and happy #stacksaturday hope you’re all having a great weekend! Today I’m sharing a little #halloweenstack which I was tagged in by the gorgeous @stardust.and.sunflowers I don’t have many Halloween prompts I have to admit but I’ve gone for Orange books, a skull which I bought in Mexico and a autumnal candle with the scents of wild fig, cassis and orange blossom. All these books are still on my TBR but they all look exciting to me. Let me know if you’ve read and loved any of them and think I should read them sooner. Have a great weekend everyone 🤗���� and let’s have a chat in the comments! #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookstack #orangebooks #orangebookstack #booksandcandles #pew #catherinelacey #inthedreamhouse #carmenmariamachado #thehistoryofbees #majalunde #loveorange #natasharandall #homecoming #luangoldie #thepapermenagerieandotherstories #kenliu #brood #jackiepolzin https://www.instagram.com/p/CVpoqOJrI1-/?utm_medium=tumblr

Oggi finalmente ve ne parlo 😎 Come vi avevo già detto, ci ho messo parecchio tempo a finirlo, ma ne è valsa la pena. Un romanzo molto complesso con tantissimi personaggi al suo interno (mai nessuno superficiale o stereotipato), che salta nel tempo, di mesi o anni a volte, portando avanti la storia. Ahimè, spesso lento, si concentra molto sulla guerra e strategia militare. Non per tutti, quindi. Però se ne siete incuriositi e tenete duro, alla fine vorrete andar avanti e scoprire come continuerà questa saga! Ve ne parlo decisamente meglio sul blog (link in bio) Fatemi sapere se lo avete letto o se ne siete curiosi 😉 #LaGraziaDeiRe #KenLiu #giftedby #Mondadori #OscarMondadori #OscarVault #booksofinstagram #bookblogger #booknerd #bookstagrammer #booklovers #book #bookish #leggere #leggerechepassione #reading #leggeresempre #booknow #leggerefabene #bookblog #booklover #read #booklove #bookshelf #amoleggere #libridaleggere #freepik #viaggiatricepigra https://www.instagram.com/p/CEjT_tPnILP/?igshid=4ol80pyoilhk

I finally read The Legends of Luke Skywalker because it was last weeks’s Star Wars Show Book Club’s selection, but I had planned on getting to it eventually. Beautifully written by @kyliu99, it’s a collection of linked stories showing how the regular folk of the galaxy view (or think they view) Luke Skywalker. Heartwarming, hilarious, and though-provoking, and each accompanied by an illustration by JG Jones, this was a quick read—it’s aimed at middle-grade readers—but highly enjoyable. I had started Liu’s Grace of Kings, but set it aside because I had too many other, shorter books on my to-read list calling for my attention, and I wasn’t in the mood for a long book at that moment. I definitely plan on returning to it, especially after being reminded what a great writer he is with this book. #thismakesmehappy #books #2020reading #starwars #legendsoflukeskywalker #starwarsbooks #kenliu #sciencefiction #middlegradenovels #middlegradebooks https://www.instagram.com/p/CCbNvdABiqT/?igshid=86j2qy6lph4a

Cela faisait un moment que je n'avais pas lu de romans et lors de mes vacances à Londres, j'ai fait le plein ! 😎 _______________________________ Le premier que j'ai lu est Broken Stars. Je ne connaissais pas du tout ce livre, c'est sa couverture galaxie qui a attiré mon regard. 😍 Il s'agit d'un recueil de nouvelles de science-fictions toutes écrites par des auteurs chinois et traduit par Ken Liu. Alors déjà, j'étais attiré par la couverture, les mots science-fiction m'ont convaincu un peu plus mais que ce soit de la science-fiction chinoise, c'est bon, j'allais direct à la caisse avec. 🤣 _______________________________ Je ne connais pas du tout la littérature chinoise et encore moins dans le genre de la science-fiction, du coup, j'ai tenté. Ce recueil a été en dents de scie pour moi. Certaines nouvelles étaient incroyables, m'ont transporté dans d'autres mondes (sans nécessairement quitter la Terre 😉) et le style d'écriture était incroyable. Mais il y avait aussi des nouvelles qui m'ont moins attiré. Une en particulière que j'ai carrément passé tellement, je n'accrochais pas à l'histoire et au style. _____________________________ Une des choses qui m'a le plus surprise lors de cette lecture est à quel point le genre de la science-fiction est varié et n'est pas aussi formaté que je pensais. J'ai découvert d'autres manières d'écrire de la science-fiction sans que ce soit nécessairement une histoire dans l'espace, des extra-terrestres, etc.... C'était vraiment passionnant. _______________________________ Ce fut une lecture très intéressante même si j'avoue que la fin de la lecture était difficile et je n'avais qu'une hâte: finir. Mais elle m'a fait découvrir des auteurs, des styles différents, un point de vue mondial différent et une nouvelle perspective sur la science-fiction. 😊 _____________________________ Ma note: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 _____________________________ Broken Stars Collectif, traduit par Ken Liu Éditions Head of Zeus (@headofzeus) _______________________________ #livrestagram #bookstagram #sciencefiction #scifi #novel #shortstories #kenliu #brokenstars #litterature #headofzeus #roman #chineselitterature #china #reading #lecture https://www.instagram.com/p/ByBLmvSowjI/?igshid=1m32hw80t97z3

The Three-Body Problem by Cixin Liu (and translated by Ken Liu) is hard science fiction filled with info dumps, complicated theories, and strange long chapters set in a virtual reality game. That sounds like the kind of book I wouldn't like & yet I really enjoyed it. Best to go in blind & with an open mind. I'll be continuing with the rest of the series! * #funaekbooks #funaekreads #bookstagram #instabooks #instaread #thethreebodyproblem #cixinliu #kenliu #sciencefiction #hugoawardwinner #pugsandbooks

Crossing the #watermelon nebula in a #journey to meet the trisolarians. As visualized from audio-reading #TheThreeBodyProblem by #CixinLiu as translated by #KenLiu ⠀ ⠀ An escapist splash of creative energy inspired by the #culturewars in my country ...or two of them. It all started with a beautiful #plant (meaning some #elephantears from the lanai) on to #kaleidoscope treatment, etc. ⠀ 👽🤖👾 #👽 ⠀ ⠀ #DigitalArt #MatterApp etc.

“And there are more ways to serve good than by fighting and confronting evil. You also serve the good by standing guard and maintaining pools of tranquility and peace; you also rebuke evil by showing that there is another way than death and warfare.” - The Legends of Luke Skywalker. • #starwars #thelegendsoflukeskywalker #kenliu. • #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #bookstagrammer #bookphotography #bookphoto #bookpic #bookpicture #booksoutside #bookandfunko #books. • @starwars @disneybooks https://www.instagram.com/p/BsvcNmfnrfp/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=vpioe3tkyvu9
