man I love Leckie's ability to just zoom into some bullshit going on in some inconsequential part of her own universe and go, "get a load of this", and i go wow ann leckie youre so right. what is going on here!

I think the audiobook narrator should've been given some better direction for the songs in this one. They ended up all sounding the same or just like spoken word poetry. Original trilogy audiobook narrator did a much more servicable job.

Snow is so ODIOUS. GOD. This is like the best writing I've ever seen from Collins. She does villain so well. What she doesn't write (and what Snow *doesn't* think) is almost as good and as telling as what she does write. Disgusting. I can't stop listening.

I love reading Ann Leckie books and going, "I think I know what's happening, but what the fuck is happening," and just knowing it'll pay off. My faith will be rewarded I just Know it

I wonder if Ann Leckie names her planets and cities and societies specifically to be impossible to pronounce. "Ooioaa", "Aaa", "Athphsid". "Rrrr". thank fuck i'm not the audiobook narrator for this

ARCH DAVENPORT FANS RISE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES THIS BOOK RULES!!!

LETS FUCKIN GOOOO ITS BELFAST PAPERS TIME!!!! I remember studying this as part of my ethics unit in MLIS!

I still feel like a lot of this is kind of disparate winding tales that are kind of maybe progressing through time but still jumping around a lot

the reveal of the fitzwilliams's house is SO GOOD OH MY GOD

I wonder whether this Star Wars book, named after a known Star Wars character, will ever have a chapter from his point of view? Pleaaaaaase stop making me go to different rando characters povs pleaaaaase I'm reading the Kenobi book to read about KENOBIIIII

I'm on my big pharma bullshit again. Can wr kill medical advertising please. Arthur Sackler I will find you

I wonder when this book will start? If I have to hear another disclaimer about the purpose of the book and "as you you'll soon see..." and "something we'll get into later", I'm going to scream. STOP EDGING ME AND START THE BOOK!!!!!!

A friend said: "You could see the sad lit version of this but they chose fun instead" and boy is he right. I'm having so much fun seeing this unravel!!

At every section I think, "no way this could get any worse", and then it ABSOLUTELY GETS WORSE.

MOM I WANT TO GET OFF THIS RIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some slower pacing in terms of story. Really making a meal out of the day to day in Corusant, Capt Rex doesnt show up until Chapter 10. Still interested, don't know if the pacing has to do with the slower narration. However this narrator is FANTASTIC. amazing range

Very informative and impassioned. DNF had to return
