The #20in4 readathon hosted by @Andrew65 starts today. I have three books I want to get finished and two books for book clubs I want to start. I'll be happy if I can get all that done.

Goliath by Tochi Onyebuchi is the winner for June. It is available for free to read, in the US, if you have a Kindle Unlimited subscription. Even my tiny local library had a physical copy and ebook format also. This book has a number of accolades so I am hoping it lives up to the hype. Enjoy!

#LitsySciFiBookClub #ReadAway2024 #SeriesLove2024 I struggled with the first three chapters because they weren‘t science fiction-y, they were about the horrific things that happened in the Chinese “Cultural Revolution” of the 1960s. But it did establish characters and the basis for their beliefs and actions. It turned into an intriguing story. I don‘t know if I‘ll continue the series but time and mood will tell.

Voting is now open to pick the June selection for the #LitsySciFiBookClub #LSFBC. Voting will be open through Tuesday. I checked with my library, and three of these books are available online: All Systems Red, The Fated Sky and Goliath. The other two are not overly pricey on Amazon at 9.99 and 4.99.

My Memorial Day weekend plans are set with these three books. I especially have to get more in to The Three Body Problem for #LitsySciFiBookClub. The other two are my #Roll100 picks for May.

3✨I finished this quite a while ago and didn‘t know how to review it. It was entertaining enough that I wanted to continue. It was witty, had a lot of science concepts (some easy, and some you really needed to think about). I was slightly confused the majority of the time. I think it was just too witty for me. #LitsySciFiBookClub

I liked this from the beginning, but didn't feel connected with it until a little over halfway through. I like the ideas in it, and the narrative sweep. There aren't any particularly engaging characters in it - perhaps wily police officer Da Shi, but he's not exactly a nice guy - so it's really about the ideas and how they're linked, which I found interesting. It was also interesting to ⬇️

#LitsySciFiBookClub I read an article about this book a couple of years ago and thought it sounded interesting, so I added it to my Audible library. Three months in a row I nominated it for this buddy read. Now I‘ve listened to the first two chapters and I‘m finding it extremely depressing, even disturbing. This is not a review. I‘m not bailing. I plan to listen to the entire book. Because I haven‘t even gotten to the science fiction part yet.
