Just finished "Borne" by @jeffvandermeer.bsky.social. What a great story with really unique settings and characters. I can tell that this is going to be one of those books that I'll be thinking about for a while after I've finished it. 🐻🦑

So I recently finished "Old Man's War" by John Scalzi, to see if I was going to dig further into the series. Really interesting concept, it's nice and accessible writing and I'm looking forward to seeing how the story keeps going from there. #BookSky 🪐📚💙

Continuing through my read of the Culture series with "The State of the Art" by Iain M. Banks.

A bit of an odd one as it's a small collection of stories rather than a single narrative, but some great content to flesh out the world. 4/5 from me!

So after reading Death's End, I follow up one existential nightmare with ... "Nuclear War: A Scenario" by Annie Jacobson.

It's so amazingly well researched and laid out, Annie Jacobson did awesome work putting details together into a truly terrifying, realistic scenario. A must read.

Recently finished "Death's End" by Cixin Liu, finishing the Remembrance of Earth's Past trilogy.

In a word: WOW. while perhaps not the most accessible read at times, my god the concepts and story is on a whole new level. I can't stop thinking about the whole thing. Strong recommend!

Finished reading "Use of Weapons" by Iain M. Banks. Holy shit, this was a really great story. I've been digging the Culture series so far; the characters and structure of this one was a really compelling experience. Strong recommend! #BookSky 💙📚🚀

Finished The Dark Forest by Cixin Liu today, first full read of the year. Crazy series so far, sometimes not the easiest read but some great concepts. Can't wait for the third book, but I have another Culture novel to hit up first! #BookSky 💙📚🚀

Finished The Player of Games by Iain M. Banks, re-reading it after many years, and hoping to finally continue forward with the rest of the Culture novels. Dark and complex, but still a really interesting and compelling story! #BookSky 💙🚀📚
