Death of the Author (Deluxe Limited Edition) | Nnedi Okorafor

I‘m tired of waiting for my library hold (still several months out) so I‘ve splurged one of my Audible credits to get this book for #campLitsy. I hope to start it by tomorrow

@BarbaraBB @Megabooks @squirrelbrain

BarbaraBB Don‘t miss out on yesterday‘s discussion if your halfway through. It adds so much to the reading experience and, probably, the second half of the book! 17h

Megabooks @BarbaraBB 100% agree - so glad you'll be joining us Karen! 8h

squirrelbrain Hope you can catch up soon! 🤞 8h

As soon I could today, I sat down and finished this book after today‘s #camplitsy discussion. I loved this. It surprised me at every turn from beginning to end. A book within a book that is half sci fi tale about robots but always supremely human, it covers a lot but it to me it all distilled down to the power of shared stories to bring us together as well as the courage to write our own stories. So lolling forward to next week‘s conversation.

squirrelbrain Great review! 8h

Jas16 @BarbaraBB @squirrelbrain Thank you both. I am really excited to hear everyone‘s thoughts next week. 1h

BarbaraBB Do glad you loved it! Have you read the #CampLitsy discussion as well? It‘s awesome! 2d

I doubt I‘ve ever tried to read six books at the same time. But here I am giving it a try! It‘s too hard to pass up a good reading challenge! And I haven‘t even started my books I‘ve picked out for #Authoramonth this month.

Drop everything! My library hold came in!! Out of order for #campLitsy? We do not care. I‘m reading five other books right now? We do not care. Cosby is an absolute go to author. So I‘m diving in as fast as I can!!

dabbe L😍VE this! Read away! 🤩 3d

squirrelbrain I‘m so excited to read this too! 3d

BarbaraJean Due to library holds, I have read every single Camp Litsy book out of order this year: Death of the Author in May, Woodworking in early June, Audition a week after the second discussion, and Tilt last weekend. And my library hold on Wild Dark Shore has yet to arrive. 😂 3d

June wasn't a *great* reading month -- no #bookspin or #doublespin -- but I did manage to get a rare #bookspinbingo, so...YAY!

I *was* able to finish both #camplitsy selections (although, shamefully, did not participate in discussions). I liked (though didn't love) Wild Dark Shore, but Audition? WTF?? (I feel this may have been a popular attitude!)

@thearomaofbooks

TheAromaofBooks Yay!! Fantastic month!! 4d
