To let the infotainment bath of the day stream over you was to slowly scrub away at the skin of your own humanity.

TrishB Wow 😮 3mo

Lindy @TrishB Good line, eh? 3mo

Epic near-future climate fiction that follows a disparate cast of characters over 14 years, starting in 2025. Science. Politics. Major weather events & fires. Manipulative advertising. War crimes. Fascism. Fanaticism. Drug addiction. Sex. Ends justifying means. Regrets. Redemption. Whew! It‘s a long & bumpy ride: 41 hours in audio. The full cast kept me engaged through the parts that are hard on tender sensibilities.

TrishB This looks really good. Very expensive here at the moment. 3mo

Lindy @TrishB If they priced books by the pound, it would be even more pricey. 😉 3mo

I‘d wound my way from the office to the downtown Barnes & Noble because I did not feel like getting on a train at rush hour, not with the pulse of indignation still beating in my head, and decided to calm myself by browsing books.

Megabooks Man, that‘s a great shelf! Enjoy browsing! 3mo

Lindy @Megabooks I took this at Munro‘s Books in Victoria. It‘s such a great bookstore! 3mo

#audioknitting I started this scarf 8 months ago (and completed several other knitting projects since then) but it‘s done now. And I love it! I didn‘t keep track of the many audiobooks that accompanied my knitting, but the final bit was while listening to the tagged epic. #litsycrafters

Lindy @julesG Thanks! The black stripes are in stocking stitch, giving a ribbed effect against the poofy garter stitch. 3mo

This book was a true masterpiece, IMO. Beautiful writing, though completely terrifying! A true investment since it's 880 pages, but well-worth it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Ta-dah! 🎉🎉🎉 My book haul from yesterday! I was really only looking to get the Mantel novel, but of course ended up leaving with two more! 😂 I wasn't planning on getting the tagged book, but after reading the blurb and remembering how much I loved his previous book, Ohio, I caved and got it! 💕📚💕 #bookhaul

This madly ambitious, sprawling, epic work of near future climate fiction packs a serious punch. Yes, it is 900+ pages, and yes it is a little demanding. The emotional depth of the multiple character storylines provides balance for the heavy political themes in a way that really pays off. If you enjoyed The Overstory by Richard Powers, The Ministry For The Future by Kim Stanley Robinson, or Stephen King‘s The Stand then this will knock you out!

Reggie Ughhhh it wasn‘t at my bookstore today!!! 1y

Whoa. This book is intense. Big. Over 900 pages. A sprawling story spanning decades as climate change catches up with the world. Scientists. Drug addicts. Environmental activists. Religious zealots. Celebrities. Politicians. Storms. Droughts. Wars. Floods. Disease. Politics. This story was terrifying and too real to enjoy; however, the meticulous research, narration style, and scope were amazing. #TheDeluge #NetGalley #January2023
