03/100 It's time to crank up some Blue Oyster Cult and read a Godzilla story. This one is kind of unusual, it's not so much about Godzilla as it about Ota Murakami, a man who faces Godzilla in 1957, and spends his life chasing and trying destroy him. If you like Kaiju, then this book is for you, in addition to Godzilla we also get Rodan, Mothra, Hedorah, King Ghidorah, Gigan and several others. The artwork is amazing, full pages of ⬇️

RamsFan1963 kaiju destroying cities and battling each other, while the puny human just try to stay out of the way. 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐ #Jumpstart2025 #Read2025 2w

Kaiju No.8, volume 1
Sci-fi creature genre are not my usual reads, HOWEVER this series is awesome. I really enjoyed season 1 of the anime and knew I needed to add the series to my library. Why do I like it? First, the main character is a mid-aged adult (not typical adolescent). Secondly, it has humor!!! Not dark and brooding. Third, it‘s fun and I want more!!!!

2. All. I love physical books. Audiobooks are great for while I'm working and driving. Ebooks are perfect for when I want to read while laying down.

The current state of my A to Z challenge right now. I'm currently reading The Kaiju Preservation Society for K. Anyone have any recommendations for the other letters I need?

Thanks!

The reread confirms: this is a good time. It also solidifies for me that I don't need to own it. I can see picking it up from the library again in a few years, but not rereading it frequently enough to justify adding it to the very limited shelf space of my personal library. I think what impacted me most about it the first time around: 1/2

Robotswithpersonality 2/2 The discovery, as an adult coming out of a decade long reading slump that compassionate, fun sci fi existed, that stories with diverse characters, where the protagonist wasn't gendered was possible, are elements that thankfully I've discovered in other works as well, since. I am so very glad I found this book when I did, and that I now have John Scalzi's backlist to keep diving into. ☺️ 9mo
