Idk it was fun for me. I thought it was interesting being from China, I’m not that well read so the Chinese author put a cool perspective on the novel.

Americans will measure in anything but the metric system.
And the reason nuclear isn’t on a decline cost curve is due to the lack of investment monies. Nuclear didn’t get the same level of RND like renewables did over the last decade.
I’m currently reading The Stars, Like Dust. By Issac Asimov. Seems decent I haven’t been completely invested in the main character like I was in The Currents of Space (I know I read book 2 before book 1). But I like Asimov so I’ll finish it it’ll be a quick read anyways. I plan to finish the Galactic Empire series and then start Foundation (Finally!).
Yeah I found that out afterwards. Each book of that series isn’t connected as far as I can tell. Each follows a different main character.
I don’t enjoy movies they just kinda feel like a waste of time for me. I just have a hard time motivating myself to watch a 2+ hour thing feels like all movies are that length now.
Currently I have Equal Rites, by Terry Pratchett on my night stand. Satire fantasy (I think). Quickly read the first two paragraphs but other than that haven’t started it yet. I enjoyed Color of Magic and Light Fantastic so looking forward to a new character lead to see how this plays out.
I listening to The Stars, Like Dust by Issac Asimov. It seems interesting about a son who’s dad was charged with treason against the galactic Empire. I’m not fully invested as I was with The Currents of Space. But I’ll see how the story pans out.
Omg same! Glad I wasn’t alone with this thought. Another point I strongly disliked was the resolution of Kylars hand it was literally resolved first thing in book 3.
Asimov is really good. If you are hesitate you can read I, Robot. Which is a collection of short stories to give you an idea of his writing style.
His books are pretty quick reads and high quality.
Moxfield is my favorite, you can also goldfish the decks you build there. Me and my friends play by screen sharing it. Pretty jank but nice.
I’m currently working on two books. The first is Gunmetal Gods by Zamil Akhtar. The genre is Epic fantasy, it is very fast paced like break neck which is both good and bad. On one had something is always happening on the other I have no time to digest the content. I’d say it’s entertaining but wouldn’t say it’s amazing at the moment. If you like quick popcorn style books go ahead you may enjoy it.
The second book I’m listening to is Restaurant at the End of the Galaxy by Douglas Adams, genre is Scifi satire comedy. We’ve all heard about Hitchhiker’s and it’s sequels I’m just finally working through the books. I recommend it but the author’s humor seems jaded which is perfect for me lol.
I always found when painting eyes was to paint it black then add the white eye part around it. Easier for me that way and ends up looking less derpy lol. But decent first attempt.
I understand where you are coming from because I feel the same way about Yumi. I definitely enjoyed Tress more, I think I enjoyed Yumi more than Lost Metal but I still want to digest it a bit more.
Okay, I’ll check out some of his books after Restaurant. Thanks for the suggestion!
I just started The Restaurant at the end of the Galaxy. I’m slowly working my way through the Hitchhiker’s series. First book was good seeing where I’ll end up.
This one is weird for me, I wasn’t drawn into this book as quick as Tress. The world wasn’t as interesting to me as some of his other works. It took me until chapter 28 to finally be invested in the characters (Early Yumi was a Karen imo, and I really don’t like her).
Early book I was only interested in Nikiro’s world the city in eternal darkowas really cool. It kind of puts a damper in my reading experience when 1/2 the pov’s take place in an uninteresting world (Yumi’s, for me was just meh).
I watched “Your Name” with my gf before I started Yumi and the whole time I was like this is a body swap like that. Pretty surprised about it being one of his inspirations I didn’t think Sando watched anime for some reason.
Overall, I give it a 2.5/5 it was okay worth a read for the Cosmere connections but I won’t reread it anytime soon if at all. Better than RoW and Lost Metal but weaker than Emperor’s Soul and Tress. Compared to the other secret projects it’s the middle book so far. Tress>Yumi>Wizard.
I miss my Google music…
Edge of Darkness by Brent Weeks.
I just couldn’t finish it. Got to the point where Kylar got his hand back and was like okay I guess the story is over now? Felt really weird that there was still around 3/4 of a book left. I just couldn’t bring myself to keep reading after that.
Just finished Robots and Empire. So I think I’m going to read some stand alone before I jump into the Empire trilogy.
Going to read Uzumaki, and Brandon Sandersons Secret Project 3.
I’ve been slowly working my way through Gunmetal God’s as well I may try to finish that in earnest as well.
Been waiting for this to go on sale. Thank you for the heads up!
Can we adopt the It’s always sunny sign instead?
