"WOWWWWWWWW
As a woman in tech, this one hit close to home, and both horrified and astounded me… AI is scary. Especially generative AI, and perhaps this book takes place in the not-so-distant future or perhaps it’s eons away, but regardless it feels as" Read more of this review » |

"Very well done, nice and short. Definitely has a vibe like The Boys from Brazil, but it's not just a thriller like that and is mostly from the boys' viewpoint. Characters are well drawn and the premise is expanded upon nicely."

"A huge thank you to Tachyon for an advance copy of Meg Elison's Foundling Fathers!
I found this book while digging through spec-fic publishers and the premise just looked like too much fun to pass up. Finding out the author, Meg Elison, is from the Be" Read more of this review » |

http://www.rollingstone.com/news/stor...Article from rolling stones I thought you might like to read. :)
Just wanted to stop in and wish you the best of the holiday season! Merry Christmas!-NoranHammond,IN :)
My co-worker did not believe i knew you - so no cool factor-i was not going for that. I was trying to talk about her history, while they were focusing on the usual E! gossip crap. They then moved onto Brad Pitt's lip hair-i kid you not! I work to save lives, and they giggle about this stuff.
Glad I could help with your "cool" factor among your friends. Don't they have more interesting things to concern themselves with?
people were talking at work this weekend about Bettie-so i told them about you and your grandfather. They could not believe i knew you via Goodreads! Sure Noran--good for you. silly fools and little lives, watch twight movies and the hills-whatever that is-I only know about from watching The Soup!
Merry Christmas /Happy Holidays!
December 6, 2008LOS ANGELES - Bettie Page, one of the most notable models of the 20th century, is hospitalized in intensive care after suffering a heart attack in Los Angeles.
Mark Roesler, Page's agent and attorney, says the 85-year-old is "critically ill."
He says she suffered a heart attack Tuesday and remains hospitalized.
He would not comment further on her condition.
Just read up on your grandfather--very impressive. What a history!
Just saw this, and was sure if you had.
