Another story, another sob fest

I’m really gonna cry at every story, aren’t I???

Really liked the “confession” scene. Very tropic, but fitting

Has several contradictory statements and several tone deaf sections imho compared to his general thesis

The story feels like it accelerated out of nowhere which is a bit off putting

Decent time jump, pretty good opening.

FINALLY!! Some gosh dang conflict, but F me the tragedy. Every good space story needs one. Rest in Peace Rocky.

This book has a little bit too much plot armor to be super enjoyable at times. Wish there was more conflict. And the conversation between the three scientists was wild to include. Hopefully it was for a reason.

A good few nuggets in tonight’s read. Jotted down some thoughts in my notes app.

Appreciate the acknowledgement of not knowing what pronouns to call rocky.

Actual alien contact was a bit surprising to me. Do appreciate the authors willingness to “defy” established science with the cylinder because they are in a realm of unknown. It shows that it’s not just a single unique thing is different. The initial communication method between the two is also nice as it make perfect “sense”

Book has some really good pacing and set up

Initial impressions are good.
