Interesting titles and conventions in this setting, it's well-thought out, though I admit I'm struggling with some of these names.

Honestly, I'm enjoying these books more than I thought I would.

Space Jews? Hmm....

"Liberal bigots are the ones who trouble me most. I distrust the extremes. Scratch a conservative and you find someone who prefers the past over any future. Scratch a liberal and find a closet aristocrat. It's true! Liberal governments always develop into aristocracies." The mental image of Leto recording this on his Ixian diary is hysterical. Honestly this book has been quite funny so far.

Okay now we're cooking!

I've never known a series where people keep interrupting each other like this. No wonder everyone in this setting is psychotic!

Kinda gives me the same feeling you get when your auntie or grandma would bring out that nice box of mint chocolates and you have your fingers hovering of them, not sure which to choose.

"I was wearing a long wool cape, circa 1890, which I had bought in Portugal, and a pair of tall leather boots."

"The Emperor was unwise in his decision of successor so the Komnenoi were justified in the rebellion." Hmmm yes very impartial my dear mmm yes...

The Book of Samuel was really good.

Can't believe how little I've read this semester. Up to the Book of Joshua, really want to continue on.

Been slow reading it. Good so far though.

Been busy so not had time to read much. Enjoying this so far though, sort of reminds me of a Raymond E. Fiest setup but geared towards sci-fi, and it's more contemplative.

The balloons are great

Been to a book fair and scored good, but how many is too many? My room is starting to look like a hoard.

Mr Duvois reminds me of that weird quiet dude from my PHIL104 tutorials. He had a pretty cool air rifle collection at his flat.

I picked this up for 20c at a book fair last year. No one on Goodreads has read it so that's a brilliant sign. Wish me luck!

Not fifty pages in and he already caught Malaria. 10/10
