Gertie is 68% done with Scythe (Arc of a Scythe, #1)
So far I have been getting worried and angry a lot, so clearly I'm "into" the book.

I hate this series because I love it so much. Off to see if it's going to be a trilogy or longer... NOOOO it's only 2 books. Guess I'd better uh, listen slowly? Damn.

"I'm not some charity case, America. I 'm a man. I'm supposed to be a provider.”

This book is making me want to puke; it had better get less ridiculous.

What fun characters, works well with audiobook. I hope the book holds up in plot to the end.

Just loving this book - life is so good when you're in the middle of an interesting story, isn't it?

Enjoying this quite a bit, finding it very quote-worthy.

Gertie is starting The Fifth Season (The Broken Earth #1)
This is a bit odd so far - I'm feeling a disconnect, but hopefully soon the characters will feel more real. The last little bit I listened to was picking up, so I'm hopeful.

Double Star

Gertie is finished with Double Star
Oye, don't know if I will be able to finish this one. It suffers from Unlike Character Syndrome, which is always a struggle for me overcome. So far our MC is specist, misogynist (then again it's Heinlein ca. 70's), pretentious, selfish, arrogant, etc. Hopefully something in the story will draw me in.

Very repetitive, which can serve a purpose but is tedious to experience. I will need to make myself read the whole thing.

I was hoping for something significantly more pithy, but still hoping to glean some useful insights.

Although I keep wishing for a bit more description, this book is engaging and fun so far.

The pledge to join the Daggers should just be called the "Arrogant Asshole Pledge".

This is "ok" so far... not sure if I like any of the characters all that much.
