Book 4/50

It took a bit for it to get going for me but when it did, whoa man did it.
I hate cliffhangers, but this was written very well.

I wish I could have listened to the audio book, because I know I'm mispronouncing names in my head.

Book 3/50 3.25/5
Typical sci-fi from the 1970's. In the distant future, humans encounter aliens and end up having to determine if they are a threat to mankind, or just trading partners.
I already own the sequel, and I'll read it eventually

Book 2/50

A student, and the guy she "hates", go to hell to rescue the advisor she thinks she killed in order for him to give her a good recommendation.
Really good imagery but I had issues with the plot.

Book 1/50

An 8 year old and his robot tiger nanny take up arms against the AI robot uprising after the boy's parents were killed along with most of the humans.
I realize it's fiction, most 8 year olds aren't ready to get in an actual shootout

I'm always nervous recommending a book that I really love to people. They learn something about you, and also if they read it and don't like it they might be judgemental.
I did however, recommend a book last night to my book club.
The Actual Star by Monica Byrne is wonderful and you should read it

Something I don't like in books is when the person who has to die is somehow miraculously saved.

Another, is when the person who dies is somehow brought back to life.

That's just me

Book 39 Starter Villain by John Scalzi

Charlie inherits his uncle's business. It ends up being more than he expects.

@scalzi.com is so much fun. This is my second finish of his and I'm reading another now. Big fan

Book 38 The Apocalypse Seven by Gene Doucette

A decent amount of predictability with an interesting ending. I enjoyed it. I lol'ed a couple times. Most of the characters were likeable.
Even the pastor.

I'd probably die.
