I'll be honest there was a large portion of this book that I was seriously questioning what I was even listening to and not just because I was trying to get used to driving a manual transmission car again. The world is so unique and while there is a lot of bodily fluids and borderline body horror I was fascinated and wanted to know more. Very hero's journey with an amnesia trope in a hard to wrap your head around environment. Glad I stuck with it.

I'm still feeling the energy from Saturday's protest. We were 10 minutes late, and the line was already 1.2 miles long on one side of the street, and about half that on the other. Not bad for a county of 66,000 (because it is a county wide effort).

lil1inblue @Sparklemn That was probably my favorite sign. "Fuck this Nazi Shit" was a close second. 1d

lil1inblue @AmyG I haven't seen an official count yet, but this was bigger than our last protest, and that was 5% of the county. 🤩 1d

This sequel to Mickey7 was GREAT! Definitely read Mickey7 first, but if you like it you will not want to miss this story, which takes place about 2 years later. I would say this one has more action and adventure than Mickey7, but includes some of the philosophical and socio-political musings that made the first one so interesting. There is also some great character development. 4⭐️

Even though I‘ve just finally finished my June #AuthorAMonth book, this is easily going to be one of my favorite books of the year.

Antimatter Blues is the sequel to Mickey7 and it‘s excellent!

Reaper Man is the second Discworld book in the “Death” series and it‘s extremely good, also. Very funny and poignant. I so enjoy Pratchett‘s style and his sense of humor.

Wow! 🤯 It doesn‘t get much better than Le Guin, IMO. This book reminded me a little of PKD only it made sense because it was UKLG. 😜

What would you do if you knew your dreams could affect reality? Unfortunately I think most of us would try to use this to our advantage as the terrifyingly normal Dr. Haber does. Who would wish such power away like George Orr?

A great (and short) philosophical novel hidden in an entertaining SciFi story.

vivastory I think that this was my first Le Guin and it blew my mind in the way that the best SF can. Still holds a special place in my heart. 4d
Ruthiella @vivastory My first Le Guin was A Wizard of Earthsea which I didn‘t jive with. But the I read Left Hand of Darkness and was blown away. 4d
vivastory I haven't read Earthsea, but I only have 2 novels remaining in the Hainish Cycle & think it's absolutely brilliant. 4d

Reggie I have more nightmares than dreams so this would be a no go. I‘ve slept with the Antichrist, I‘ve been burned alive in a mall restroom as a white girl (I don‘t know why I was a white girl), and I‘ve seen the nuclear bomb as it hits through a window at work. lol but this review is great and intrigues me. Stacked! 4d
Ruthiella @Reggie My nightmares are usually more along the lines of a never ending house where all the rooms are unfamiliar. 😱 I hope you like this book when/if you get to it! 🤞 (edited) 4d
AnishaInkspill I really want to read this, on my tbr 3d
Ruthiella @AnishaInkspill I hope you like it when/if you get a to it. Le Guin‘s books tend to really make me think, which I appreciate. (edited) 3d

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ robots behaviors should not be ignored. Hence AI! A profound collection of short stories that are timeless and timely. A variable of dilemmas that ultimately become something quite terrifying. A thought provoking read of explosive ideas.
