“It was wasteful, he declared, to recycle the Tarlanders‘ defective bodies into Matilda when the steady pulse of an electrical current could reanimate them as perfect, obedient workers. It didn‘t matter that the genetic anomaly endemic to their people might lead to their extinction if their spiritless cadavers could hoe fields effectively. No productivity loss.”
Rivers Solomon is accurate & hardcore in #AnUnkindnessOfGhosts.
pickDaisy decided bathing was more important than showing her adorable face. That brat! 😜 Oh well, I'll roll with it so I can post and start a new book. Finished #AnUnkindnessOfGhosts and I give it 5 ⭐️. Wow! Compelling and hard to put down, but also brought me to tears more than once (never a fun experience for me, since I hate to cry). Definitely going on my list of favorites! What have you been reading recently?
I finished #TheRavenBoys last night (4 ⭐️), but alas I find myself without access to the sequel. So onto my next adventure: #AnUnkindnessOfGhosts. The March pick for #TheSwordAndLaser podcast. I shall return to the Raven Cycle at another date.
