- A book has never made me feel so strongly.
- I felt overwhelmed by the ending of the book and it came out of nowhere.
- I don't feel like I was even that sympathetic to the main character but really connected to the last few pages where she describes the sympathy and love she felt for her friend.

- Might have to add this to my all time favorites.
- So many cool ideas and concepts here absolutely amazing.
- Avoiding thinking about hard problems that you are worried about are like antimemes.

- It was pretty good I liked all the political drama but I am a bit too used to Steven Erikson's inaccessible sequels. Being able to jump straight in like a next episode in a series was strangely jarring.

- Oh man I haven't experienced staying up late into the night since I lost track of time because I was reading in a long time. I really loved this book.

- Popular science is always iffy with me since I feel like a lot of these concepts get oversimplified and not enough nuance is communicated.

- Major vibe shift from previous works.
- I was ready to drop this book but am glad I pushed through.

- I like that I don't have to learn new characters a bunch of them are there from the first book.
- I have a bit of a hard time keeping track of Jhugs, Trells, and Tlan Imass.
- Being engrossed in these other world is really fun.

- An awesome saga with beautiful world building.
- Sort of tough to get into but the payoff is fantastic.

- A fun collection of stories imagining the lived experiences of scientists.
- Unclear how much of it is grounded in some sort of historical evidence.

- I had to stop reading this one during Neurips rebuttal because it was putting me in a real weird mood.
- The depiction here of the alien life-form felt like it related to the concept of zombies.
- It was even more powerful, however, since there was an eagerness for it to understand it on a human level.
- It felt somehow similar to Lem's writings like Solaris.
- The end felt a little rushed and idealistic like Hyperion.
by Adrian Tchaikovsky - 2023/08
- I was captivated by the story.
- I really loved the weirdness of the characters.
- I liked the unclear identity of the god like character circling the planet.
by Nicole Galland, Neal Stephenson - 2023/07
- It started off so fun but man a huge portion of this book can be cut.
- So many really slow moments that don't really contribute to advancing the narrative.
by Stanislaw Lem - 2023/07
- Absolutely hilarious short story. Couldn't stop laughing.
by Andy Weir - 2023/06
- It was really hard to peel away from this book.
- The way science is depicted annoyed me.
- Everything worked out of the box and it was always super innovative instantly solving all the problems.
by Stephen King - 2023/05
- I've had to stop reading this book a few times because it affected my mood so much.
- Slightly terrifying but a fantastic standoff between good and evil.
- Reminds me of lord of the rings in that way.
