What are you reading? (& general book discussion)

Since this thread got bumped by a spambot, I’m currently working my way through a thicket of unpublished fanfic to review and discuss w/ the authors (& other participants). Also finished Pinanesi recently. That book is like if the House from House of Leaves were a benevolent provider to its victims.

Since we’re here again

Had a mini sci-fi binge lately. Best of the bunch was The Sparrow, which has a kind of odd premise but had plenty of intrigue and probably the best characters I’ve seen from sci-fi. Also read the sequel to that book and the first Expanse book, which were both solid. Also also, shoutout to American Gods, which I read a few months ago now but was more than worth my time.

I’m a bit embarrassed to say this, but maybe a year ago I read about two pages into Piranesi and was just like wtf. Maybe I just wasn’t ready :p

kitty!

You need to get about 20 pages in before it makes sense. The first section is a major WTF (and also an introduction to the mechanics of the House).

Sign of the Unicorn is seriously awesome! If you’re into adventure, magic, and a bit of mystery, this book is totally for you. So, there’s this guy, Corwin, who’s trying to figure out who he really is and why his family is always scheming. Plus, everyone’s fighting for the throne of Amber, which isn’t just any throne—it controls all the worlds! I got into reading book reviews when I had to write an essay for school. I found a great website called https://chatgpt.com/g/g-a0ULgFcuZ-essay-helper that had really helpful reviews.
P.S.The book is packed with so much action that you won’t want to put it down: there are battles, puzzles, and a ton of different worlds you can travel through. And the best part is that every chapter has something that’ll make you go “whoa!”
