the movies were so good I had to pick up the series. Haven’t read another scifi series since Ender‘s Game when I was in grade school. I’ll be starting book 4 this week

i think more people are reading dune as a result of dune: part two being released but as a certified dune head (read all books and is regularly fights with people on the dune subreddit) i highly recommend that you read all six books. yes they’re a little political jargony but if you take the time to really read them and discover the universe i promise it’s so rewarding. there’s also just a lot of fun stuff like people worm fusions and child cult leaders and the last part has a lesbian space sex matriarchy trying to take over the universe!!(don’t read the brain herbert books tho they’re not that good)

I don’t think I’ve ever read sci-fi before in my life, but when they (the industry) announced that the new film adaptation of Dune would be starring my angel Timothée Chalamet, I was like okay… hmm… interesting… My friend kept bugging me to read it and finally I was like, you know what, fine. I bought a copy at McNally Jackson (“gotta do it for Timmy” said the cashier… he knew). At first I was like, what language is this in??? But then I discovered the glossary and started getting the flow. Instantly hooked. The story is addictive and it felt good indulging in something totally new. It’s so not me… but I’m sick of me. I want an escape! I want to be on another planet! Arrakis!!!!
