I finished Stories of Your Life and Others by Ted Chiang. It was pretty enjoyable, each short story was well-contained and lasted only long enough to tell the story without being drawn out too much.
I am now reading Red Rising by Pierce Brown. It reminds me a bit of Hunger Games in the initial setup, but I’m hooked!
but I couldn’t put it down for the last dozen chapters.
Welcome to the Sanderlanche :)
Since last time, I finished Severance by Ling Ma. I thought it was a good read - sorta reminded me of Catcher in the Rye due to its bleak tone & main character’s… unwillingness to take responsibility / control of their life? Overall, I’d recommend it; it’s pretty short.
I’m now reading Stories of Your Life and Others by Ted Chiang. These are a collection of short stories that have been really fun!
Ha kind of? There’s another book in the series written by a different author as a fanfic I believe that was “blessed” by the actual author and published as a 4th book.
I finally finished Death’s End (book 3 of the Three Body Problem series). I have to admit, I was pretty tired of this series by the end. I don’t think I’ll read the 4th? Overall, I like the ideas presented, but found the story to be underwhelming and sometimes boring.
I just started Severance by Ling Ma. I’ll try to remember to post an update in a future thread when I finish!
I finished the first two books in the Red Rising Saga and have just begun the third.
Really enjoying the series as a whole - fun concept, interesting characters, and lots of action!
