Welcome to Litsy!

Hard book to review. A novel and yet it reads more like a memoir. It is about everything and nothing. We share the inner and outer lives of 6 astronauts/cosmonauts as they orbit the planet in an international space station. The descriptions of the earth from space and the 16 ascending/descending orbits that make up a day and a night are beautiful and enigmatic and otherworldly and unimaginable and this novel is unlike any other I have read.5⭐️

This third book in the Final Architecture series brings the trilogy to a satisfying close. Idris resists the plan to destroy the Architects, knowing they are compelled to obey their unseen masters. Meanwhile, a betrayal separates the crew of the Vulture God, and calls into question whether there can be a united front against the enemy. A fitting end to a brilliant and imaginative found family space opera. Loved it!

Okay, I read about a third of this and all it is is a narrative of a guy playing a video game. Boring...

"Andecka Tal Mar: Intermediary in a three-crew ship named the Skipjack, currently operating with only two because every resource was stretched right now, especially the human kind."

Very happy to be reading this last book in the Final Architecture trilogy!

Wow. Good wrap up for the series. The VUlture God crew is on the run from the Architects and from the creature(alien, whatever) that is making them attack and alter planets with intelligent life forms. What do they want? What can stop them?

I love the characters, who are exceedingly diverse. The story is imaginative, full of humor even in the face of terror. Brightly written, with great visuals throughout.

Man, this irritates me! These are all I have of the series so far, so I don‘t know what the rest look like.

This was a great listen that describes the experiences of the first six American women to be astronauts - Sally Ride, Judy Resnik, Anna Fisher, Kathy Sullivan, Shannon Lucid, and Rhea Seddon.

Movie/Book news!!

I enjoyed this book a lot. It was engaging, funny and exciting every step of the way.
I was quite satisfied with the movie too, although it wasn't as good as the book obviously.
