This book is absolutely fantastic. I'm probably going to give it 5 stars.

A Memory Called Empire (Teixcalaan, #1)

Duncanator
Duncanator is 50% done with Spider-Verse
This definitely inspired the spider-verse movie but the plot is entirely different. I really like it so far. I will say that the spider-verse event seems to have a lot more to it than is in this book: this contains the vital threads of the story, but there's a lot more that is not included. Lots of notes "*see comic x, issue y". I'm enjoying it so far.

Duncanator is reading Crash Override: How Gamergate (Nearly) Destroyed My Life, and How We Can Win the Fight Against Online Hate
I'm halfway. This book seems to be more an explanation of abuse online, and how it's being reacted to by the large tech companies (not well), than it is a personal account. It's a little draining to read because the things that happened to ZQ are so awful. It's good that she also gives accounts by less well-known targets of abuse. Look at the one star reviews to see how much people extremely care about hating on her.

Duncanator is 31% done with All the Birds in the Sky
this book feels manipulative, as if I'm being forced to hate the bad guys. there are so many bad guys. The main characters just get dumped on non-stop. I've almost out the book down and stopped reading it, twice so far. if I don't like it soon I'll bin it
