I am excited about Season 3.

The only other thing I have seen it compared to is Outlander. But I never read that.

I like the The Winternight Trilogy
by Katherine Arden

The Birth of Venus by Sarah Dunant is historical fiction. Nothing supernatural.

The Rector’s Garden at Lincoln College with the chapel to the left and the Oxford Arts Centre ahead - just peeping out above the roofline is the dome of the Radcliffe Camera.

I've read the the Sarah Dunant one.

I'll look into the other you suggested, Thank you!

I second the Katherine Arden book.

I have to think of books that may include supernatural elements but are more on the historical side.

I loved that one.

Hope you like it

You're welcome.

I awoke to snow this morning but by the time I’d reached the Square it was almost gone - here is what remained on the lawns of the Radcliffe Camera as viewed through the gates of the Bodleian Library.

Quote:

Couldn’t resist the Trinity College Japanese quince again against the blue railings and in the snow yesterday morning - the colour combination was very lovely.

Quote:

A third and final image of flowers in the snow from yesterday morning - here the cherry blossoms with their matching hats of snow. Thankfully sunny blue skies have returned.

Nooo snow. That's terrible but also pretty.

**BehrItAll** · 04-15-2021, 07:09 PM

Gorgeous phots but not where I want to go.

Quote:

Clouds in a blue sky over Turl Street - with Lincoln College and Library tower to the left.

Quote:

The backs of the noble-headed emperors as they guard the Sheldonian Theatre.

Quote:

Morning light and the faun in golden silhouette over St Mary’s Passage with the High Street in the distance.

Oxford is an architect's dream.

**BehrItAll** · 04-16-2021, 05:43 PM

True. So much to sketch too.

Quote:

Misty morning sunrise over the bend in the river Cherwell and the Botanic Garden - with reflections of the trees and Magdalen tower in the distance.

Quote:

All Souls is still closed to visitors but it was good to catch a glimpse of the Front Quad through the open doorway yesterday afternoon.

**LilMouse** · 04-17-2021, 10:12 AM

Oxford feels very ghosty.

**BehrItAll** · 04-19-2021, 06:26 PM

I bet there are ghosts there.

Quote:

So good to see the light streaming through the windows in the Magdalen College Cloisters again.

Quote:

Golden morning light over Magdalen - down by the Cherwell with the narcissi now in bloom on riverbank.

**LilMouse** · 04-20-2021, 04:19 PM

Would you want to see an Oxford ghost?

Teresa posted this on her Instagram on December 17th, 2017.

"Ghostly" figure in the window and it's NOT a cast or crew member!

**LilMouse** · 04-20-2021, 06:32 PM

So it is a ghost or something else in your opinion?

B ē ｔｔ ⓨ · 04-20-2021, 08:09 PM

Well they were filming at an old location, and I believe ghosts/spirits exist, so I think they inadvertently caught something.

**BehrItAll** · 04-20-2021, 08:31 PM

I think it is just a reflection.

I don't want to see any ghosts.
Just angels

Sunlight and shadows play along the Magdalen cloister.

I loved this beautiful keyhole surround on an old wooden door at Magdalen - it is somewhat reminiscent of the windows in the nearby cloisters.
