pick65/100 Its been awhile since I've read any Frederik Pohl, I'd forgotten what a talented writer he was. This is a story of parallel worlds, of characters meeting various versions of themselves as the wall between the dimensions begins to falter. It is a little confusing at times, multiple POVs with the same name and all told in first person, but it's worth sticking with for the solid conclusion. 4 ⭐ #Read2025
so-soI didn‘t find this one as gripping as the first one but I‘m still going to continue with the series!
so-soI didn‘t fully understand it. But I‘d recommend for anyone who loves sci-fi and time travel.
I‘m going to have to make that home library list of Star Trek books. This is the third I‘ve restarted before realizing I‘ve read it before 😁
Next up! I know I can blame summer camp discussions on picking up this one. I even pitched it to my book club 😬😱😳 which I am sure half of the group is displeased. #ohwell #bookclubrecfear Raise your hand if you, too, fear the wrath of poor book choices?!?! 🙋🏻♀️
Space opera with lots of battles and politics. I love the series.

pan2/5⭐️ Really didn‘t like this book; really wished that my library book club hadn‘t picked this one. Felt that the topic, while timely, felt a bit esoteric at times and it didn‘t help that the storyline that jumped around a lot; not a fan of Ms. Evan‘s writing style. #bookclub #contemporary #2025 #fiction #scifi
pickThe concept of a Jurassic Theme Park with live dinosaurs has always mesmerized me. Where can I buy a ticket?! 🫣 So I finally read the book where it all started. I was surprised to find a frightfully sinister Hammond and an even more annoying Malcolm and Lex. But overall terrifying factor—off the charts. Must read more Michael Crichton. What a creative genius he was! Is the original movie better than the book? I‘d say they go best hand in hand.
I think we're in for a pretty massive storm tonight! I got the dogs all settled in, and now we're hunkering down in the bedroom with a good book and a bag of nerds clusters (bc why not 😂).
I'm a few chapters into this book and I'm really enjoying it. I LOVED Becky Chambers' novellas (Monk & Robot), and I'm hoping for some more of that contemplative world building with this series.
