edit data

I consider myself a digital phenomenologist, and an aspiring polymath. But I could more accurately be described as a Gen X malcontent. I currently work in marketing, mostly for tech companies, but I have also been an entrepreneur-in-residence at a venture capital firm, a mountain bike tour guide, and once owned a skateboard shop in Las Vegas. I am a husband, and father of three children and one rescue greyhound. I live in the mountains east of Seattle.

Tac Anderson rated a book liked it Recursion by Blake Crouch (Goodreads Author)	Error rating book. Refresh and try again. Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
This was my favorite Blake Crouch novel. It was good but I've decided this is my last of his novels. I didn't love Dark Matter and I couldn't get into Pines. I get why people like this book so much, but for some reason Crouch's prose feels dry to me, ...more

This is the worst book I have ever read. Utterly pointless. I say this as someone who did read the entire thing, despite my desire to stop many, many times. The only catch-22 is that people who pick up this book thinking it a great piece of literatur ...more

I first read William Gibson's Neuromancer in college. It was the coolest book I'd ever read. Everything about this book drips cyberpunk coolness. Roughly thirty years later I decided to reread it. I can tell you the book is just as cool as I remember ...more

I'm torn between giving this book a 2 or a 3, so maybe it's more of a 2.5. It's preachy and really more like a treatise for the way Heinlein thinks the world should work. Worst of all, it's really boring. There's a battle at the beginning and a battl ...more
