Welcome to Litsy!

I almost skipped this month because this seemed way outside what I typically enjoy. But I decided to give it a try and found it to be a lot of fun. It's a quick, lighthearted, quirky read that gave me Megamind and Despicable Me vibes. Genius cats, foul-mouthed dolphins demanding unionization, and a secret volcanic island lair all make for a bizarre and clever adventure. #AuthorAMonth @Soubhiville

Absolutely hilarious collection of short science fiction. Not much plotwise, more satiric vibes. The gossip of intelligent machines was a high point.

I am a big Scalzi fan and have read many of his books. This one didn't land as well for me. The first half really pulled me in, and then it started to drag a little. I did enjoy the vignettes of someone's life each day of the moon crisis. My favorites were the billionaire and the cheese feud.

My first time reading two #authoramonth books in a month! @Soubhiville

Midwest to East Coast road trip. Hope to finish my #AuthorAMonth pick on the way.

This was fun! #authoramonth @Soubhiville

This was really interesting from a format perspective. The moon turning to cheese for no discernible reason? That's the foolishness I have learned to expect from this author.

I haven't read a Scalzi that didn't make me cackle with laughter and this was no exception! I really love the character of the bumbling new manager who's in over his head. The cats and the dolphins were of course wonderful but I loved the mystery and spy novel of it all as well.
I'm glad #AuthorAMonth made me finally listen to this one, I've had it for a while. Plus Wil Wheaton's narration was the cherry on top! #AAM @Soubhiville

In some ways this is just as silly as When the Moon Hits Your Eye, but it has so much more sweetness and heart. A reread for me, and just as good as the first time.

4.5/5 ⭐️
I loved this! I was especially grateful for the Hera story at the end. I also adored the dolphins, despite their salty personalities 🤣

Another #authoramonth success story.
