The Scar | China Miville

My Scar reading has sped up, because it's going well so far. Here's 2 things I've thought about this morning:
1) this book could pull the exact same twist that Perdido Street Station did, with Tanner. Please don't, book.
2) hearing about the different lands makes me think very strongly of the Wayward Children series

The Scar | China Miville

I read Perdido Street Station 9 years ago, and I found a reveal in it so off-putting that I have read any Miéville since. However, I want to try listening to a podcast (shocking!) and their first topic is The Scar, so, with trepidation, I'm reading it. Slowly.

#WednesdayWisdom tad late (hic 😅 🥴)

Wishing all my fellow lovely Littens a very happy and healthy 2025.
This is the first time in about 8 years I've actually seen the new year in. It's been a blast, thanks to the company and the Kraken! 🐙 In the words of Jack Sparrow, why is the rum gone? 🥴🤔😊

Ruthiella Happy New Year! 🥳🥂🍾 6mo

Annihilation was by far my favorite of the trilogy

My first Mieville in English! I was a bit scared to read this chunkster, but I think I managed pretty well. I had to fight sometimes to make it through, but as always, Mieville is worth it.
The world-building is just amazing, and I got sucked into this special world. We deal with a lot during this story. Politics, betrayal, death, but also friendship, honesty and making things right.

I enjoyed this more than I thought I would. The worldbuilding is weird in a good way. But the ending was a mess and it could have used a little bit more editing. Recommend the audio as well.

#two4tuesday @TheSpineView 💕

1) Stuart Turton, but you're probably all fed up of me plugging his books by now, so I'm gonna give a shout out to Jeff Vandermeer, Emily St John Mandel, Helen Oyeyemi, Neil Gaiman, Haruki Murakami, Brian K. Vaughan, Patricia Lockwood, Blake Crouch, David Mitchell, Alison Rumfitt, Patrick DeWitt, Stephen King, N.K. Jemison, Claire North, and Bernadine Evaristo.

2) Jeff Vandermeer's fungalpunk Finch was decent.

TheSpineView All good choices. Thanks for playing! 13mo
Caryl What a great list of authors! 13mo

I am posting one book per day from my extensive, and ever growing, TBR shelves. Some are old and some are new, some were gifts and some I don't remember why I bought them
