I want to finish these books before Labor Day, but especially Beautyland because I have a book club about it Sunday evening. I am way behind this month. I've enjoyed what I've read, but my brain has been really sloooowed dowwwwn by brain fog. It's a little frustrating. Anyway, looking forward to a weekend filled with books, tea, and dog snuggles. 📚🫖🐶

I read sixty pages of MIGHTY GOOD ROAD before bed last night and I‘m very much here for Melissa Scott‘s vibes. She‘s mighty good at building intricate, fun-to-discover worlds inhabited by intriguing characters. I can‘t wait to read more.
ALSO, I found a Leonardo Hello Kitty and while I‘m sad for the kid who lost it, I‘m super happy for me. Leonardo was my childhood fave because he had TWO SWORDS like a BADASS.
A cross-species science fiction story, set alongside the highways of northern rural Scotland where vulnerable humans are picked up by a strange woman and made to face a horrible fate. A moralistic tale without heavy-handed preaching, Faber calls into question our assumptions about “classes” of animals and “classes” of human and asks whether we all are really the same, “under the skin.”

What would happen if a work home opened up inside an IKEA? Where would that wormhole lead to?
Lots of humour and action in this anti-capitalist multiverse novella. Ava has recently broken up with Jules and is called into work at LitenVärd on her fay off, hoping the won‘t run into Jules there, but things start to get weird when she goes in search of a missing shopper, lost in the store.

Looooooved it! This was a store book club read and it was so cozy and delightful. The sci fi backdrop was there with members of a mixed species space ship crew doing different missions, but the real heart of the book was the characters. I honestly can‘t pick a favorite- maybe Sissix, or Kizzy, or Dr. Chef... Chambers was so creative with the way she imagined different species, family structures, cultures and rituals… a really rich story.
Bradbury is the master of the short story & this collection is one of his best. It follows multiple trips to Mars from earth. There are so many standouts, but Usher 2, depicting a horror house built to trap book banners, & There Will Come Soft Rains, about the fall out of nuclear disaster on Earth, are two of the most memorable. Bradbury has a unique ability to capture fear, innocence, joy, & longing with a simple phrase. He‘s a forever favorites.
