by Philip Pullman. The Golden Compass, The Subtle Knife, and The Amber Spyglass. Very rich and engaging fantasy stuff! Cool metaphysics, strange fauna and flora, and some wild adventures!
There is too many to choose from. This is really a rec for the His Dark Materials trilogy. But this is one of the books that introduced me to melancholy.
The other is A Tree Grows in Brooklyn.
Today was Bat Appreciation Day. If you havenβt done so already, now is the time to appreciate bats. Iβve made it pretty easy with this collage of a few fav bat pics β please enjoy π
