I DNFed 'I am Pilgrim.' When a protagonist uses the threat of sexual violence to further his objectives, I'm out.

If you want to know what is was like to be a Roman Legionnaire, "Under the Eagle" is a good place to start.

'Network Effect' isn't just a rollicking science fiction adventure. It's a thoughtful take on the human condition disguised as a rollicking science fiction adventure.

Scottish Opera offers hugely discounted tickets to people under the age of 26. In fact most of the theatres here do, usually for around Β£10. Which means you could see a whole live show for less than the cost of a ticket to one of Timothee Chalametβs films. Just saying.
βLivesuitβ is a tight little sci-fi story with a Twilight Zone twist. Iβm here for it.

I can dig it. Itβs perfectly legit to not fall in love with a given work.
Thatβs a perfectly valid take. I thought it added depth. Better, it did so through exciting storytelling.
I feel like I havenβt truly finished a book until Iβve written about it.
How about you?

You say youβre into literary fiction.
Middlemarch ranks among the greatest novels ever written.
Pride & Prejudice is up there, too.
Read them because theyβll entertain, delight, and challenge you.
If you arenβt reading Brubaker & @seanphillips.bsky.social, I donβt know how we can be friends.

βThe Mercy of Godsβ is a page-turning science fiction adventure, sure. Itβs also a masterpiece of speculative xenobiology.
If the nerds in your life have birthdays coming up, you know what to get them.

What a great title!
February was a good month for reading. The best of the bunch? βThe Bad Weather Friend,β by Dean Koontz.

βThe Winter Fortressβ makes an excellent companion to βAmerican Prometheus.β

A Jack Reacher novel that doubles as a sensitive exploration of opioid addiction? I did not see that coming.

You aren't in RI, are you? My wife is a lawyer and a classicist. She'd probably love it.
