Off topic Mojo, but I love your avatar.

My Ray Bradbury collection! These are all original mass market paperbacks of the author's short stories published between 1946 and 1972, omitting collections where the stories had been previously anthologized elsewhere. Also pictured are the two omnibus oversize hardcovers with 200 of his collected short stories! I adore his heavily descriptive style and vivid imagery. There's no one quite like Bradbury. <3

My friends and family know just how much I adore Calvin & Hobbes. And the crocheted Hobbes doll and Hobbes enamel pin my girlfriend got me are among my most beloved possessions. But I had yet to claim a complete library of Watterson's classic comic strip.

I've finally secured the handsome oversize 1,456-page 3-volume first-printing hardcover box set from 2005. The set ranks as the #1 Best Seller for Amazon's Graphic Novel Anthologies category. I couldn't be happier! These will be a joy to read every day. Hooray! <3

For a detailed look at this beautiful box set, visit my absolute collection: The Complete Calvin and Hobbes Three Hardcovers Oversized Boxed Set

That’s so cool, I absolutely love the Hobbes doll, and I still have my copy of the complete comics box that I got back when it was new (2005? Wow, feels more recent than that, haha). C&H was a massive part of my childhood, the transmogrifier, Spaceman Spiff, classic stuff.

Thanks man. You may already know but should you not, it's by this guy who does the artwork for the band Conan. This work specifically was used for the album Monnos.

I really enjoyed this, although I'd probably say I'm not 100% certain I love Neil Gaimans writing style. I enjoyed it enough however to try something else, and also to go and see the National Theatre adaptation at the weekend. That was really impressive.

Currently diving into "The Night Circus" by Erin Morgenstern, and it's pure enchantment. The intricate world-building and magical atmosphere have me spellbound.

The Great Gatsby, it's like stepping back in time. Highly recommend this classic!
