Necronomicon 🦑🙈🦑 To all my Helsinki based friends: Guys, you have to go see #necromomicón @necronomicon_pelicula by #marceloschapces @nightvisionsfestival Perfect horror movie for book lovers and especially fans of Lovecraft ❤
“Let us read, and let us dance; these two amusements will never do any harm to the world.” ― Voltaire Haven't been reading anything lately. Maybe next week will be better for books ❤
“Comics deal with two fundamental communicating devices: words and images. Admittedly this is an arbitrary separation. But, since in the modern world of communication they are treated as independent disciplines, it seems valid.” ― Will Eisner, Comics and Sequential Art . Sain ihania arvostelukappaleita taannoin ❤ #mutzi ei kiertele vaan laukoo kovia ja hauskoja totuuksia äitiydestä, suosittelisin kaikille äideille luettavaksi 😁 #kiroilevasiili8...kuka ei tästä tykkäisi 😛 . #finnishnightmares2 dives much deeper into Finnishness...I very much enjoyed the second part too but I wonder if the comics are still funny if you don't know that much about Finns. I felt like first book was for foreigners but with #2 it was almost like it was for foreign people living in Finland...or those who had read first part. Reviews coming up 😉
“The caged bird sings with a fearful trill of things unknown but longed for still and his tune is heard on the distant hill for the caged bird sings of freedom.” ― Maya Angelou, The Complete Collected Poems
“Believe nothing you hear, and only one half that you see.” ― Edgar Allan Poe KauhuCon tuliaisia itselleni ❤ ...Vielä ehtii. #kauhucon
Book to match my name ❤🕷🕸
“Is the Easter Bunny a space alien trying to trick us into implanting us with his eggs? Because I will so swear off chocolate right now.” ― Thomm Quackenbush, Artificial Gods Happy Easter (again) 😁🐥🐣💟
“If books could have more, give more, be more, show more, they would still need readers who bring to them sound and smell and light and all the rest that can’t be in books. The book needs you.” ― Gary Paulsen, The Winter Room Happy Easter dearests! 🐣🐥💜💟💜💟💜🐣🐥
“Words and pictures are yin and yang. Married, they produce a progeny more interesting than either parent.” ― Dr. Seuss . I got book mail! Or even better comic book mail! 😍 Ugh...so I haven't been posting in a while. But. I have a good excuse. Called Procrastination... But guys take a moment to appreciate (my hand gymnastics and) this beautiful, simple artwork. Kiroileva Siili 8 😍 & mielenkiintoa herättävä Mutzi
“What of Art? -It is a malady. --Love? -An Illusion. --Religion? -The fashionable substitute for Belief. --You are a sceptic. -Never! Scepticism is the beginning of Faith. --What are you? -To define is to limit.” ― Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray
“I guess I should have reacted the way most of the other girls were, but I couldn't get myself to react. I felt very still and very empty, the way the eye of a tornado must feel, moving dully along in the middle of the surrounding hullabaloo.” ― Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar Hey folks. How's your weekend been? I've been reading Plath because February seems to be a perfect month for it. Also a ton of nonfiction. I believe my life would be easier with smaller "books read goal".
“I was a hugely unchaperoned reader, and I would wander into my local public library and there sat the world, waiting for me to look at it, to find out about it, to discover who I might be inside it." ― Patrick Ness
“Harry - you're a great wizard, you know." "I'm not as good as you," said Harry, very embarrassed, as she let go of him. "Me!" said Hermione. "Books! And cleverness! There are more important things - friendship and bravery and - oh Harry - be careful!” ― J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone Hyvää lukurauhan päivää 😘 Hus somesta & lukemaan kirjoja ❤ In Finland 🇫🇮 we have a day dedicated for reading. There are six rules to follow: 1. You may read all kinds of books in all kinds of places. 2. Reading together is allowed. 3. Reading alone is allowed. 4. Reading for others is allowed. 5. Disturbing reading of others is prohibited. 6. Disrupting your own reading time by secondary activities is prohibited.
“Everything's a lot tougher when it's for real. That's when you choke. When it's for real.” ― Stephen King, It 🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈 You'll float too. We all float down here. #suomalainenkirjakauppa
“It is a truth universally acknowledged that a zombie in possession of brains must be in want of more brains.” ― Seth Grahame-Smith, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies God I hate Pride and Prejudice...but maybe all it needed was zombies and you know...brains...blood...gore...It seems almost obvious 🤔 + my awesome colleague ☄🌟☄ liked this and shared my views on Austen (just so you know only like 8% of readers do not like it (goodreads stats)) so it can't be that bad. ...For a contrast, I'm also reading The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath. I feel her pain through her words. Her way to see the world...her thoughts are breathtaking.
