Holy fuck he’s so good

Upsetting, eerie sci-fi horror stories really well written so far

I haven’t found the horror yet, hopefully it’ll come later. Nothing beats Children of memory on that front

I’m not buying it

This is getting too pompous and borderline simplistic but it does feel like a soap opera you just can’t stop watching

Great so far, high expectations for the second half

It’s like an allegory inside an allegory inside an allegory (complimentary)

Really enjoying this. It was a good call reading ‘The rediscovery of men’ short stories first.

This sucks. I’ll just keep Asimov in my memories

Good stuff

Something’s missing

This is not working out babe

‘Their long-dead ancestors had wanted their descendants to know that, when they ruined a planet, it damn well stayed ruined.’

I had underestimated how much of a nightmare the US is

Fuck Kerouac and the fucking Beats

If I were Karl, I would be bursting with anger at how this type of middle-aged man always seems to take up one's time and energy. It never matters to them how non-committal or uninterested you sound, they always tell you about their son's success at college or their daughter's wedding or simply let loose a stream of non sequiturs. I wanted to scream; instead, I nodded politely.

As with House of day, house of night, I may be hoping for an ending to tie this up that may not come

I don’t know how she manages to pack all this stuff in a single book and get away with it (complimentary).

Jackpot

I’m loving this but it may be causing me mystery-induced exhaustion

This guy is smart

There’s no doubt it’s good but it’s so dry to the point of being off putting. I didn’t think ‘The happening’ was like this, probably because I listened to it

Holy fuck I wasn’t expecting space horror

I’m loving it

Truly exquisite writing. Jumping around the stories and her later work is top notch.

Never mind, it’s fine, I just needed to push through that particular chapter

Something made me lose interest. Probably the fact that I’ve read 400 pages non stop and the book is packed with unrelenting tension. Tension should be released from time to time in such long books. I don’t think that’s happening here so I should probably take a break for today

I thought it was going to fall into pulp cliches but it didn’t! Quite happy with this so far

Hell yeah

This is way too hard for my silly little overworked brain right now
