ICE agents are goons who commit violence if they can get away with it? Really!

Reading for work, clearly. On page 116 and have just now gotten to the coal mines.

It’s fine so far? Very 2010s feeling I won’t lie. It is a LitRPG so I’m inclined to dislike it just on those grounds but it’s been enjoyable so far.

I’m enjoying it but I feel like the main plot still hasn’t started and I’m a quarter of the way through.

It’s good but dear god was letting me read this as a 5th grader a mistake. A mistake which my dad swiftly corrected, but.

Checked out from library. Fast reading. Fun so far, excited to see the end.

Enjoying this one quite a bit. As usual, I am impressed with Brusatte's commitment to mentioning other paleontologists and their work.

Look not to harp on this too much but you can’t call your book “counter-colonial discourse” if the first **200** pages are English colonial officials sniping at each other in letters, not that I don’t enjoy that.

My opinion of this book is not improving. I’m over halfway through and we have not gotten to the hypothetical subject of the book, inter-communal debates among Fiji Indians about sexual morality and how that impacted Indian politics in Fiji. For a book notionally about counter-colonial discourse, almost every quotation has been from a British administrator. He said he wasn’t doing a history of Fiji Indians, but.

Extraordinarily painful first chapter about discourses etc. Read like high theory for its own sake. Second chapter a little better so far but still painful.

Ok well I’m on 263/262, so idk what’s going on there. Do the right thing Rex!

He’s done it again. Guy just loves alien minds.
