“Everybody dies, everything ends—but not now. Not now.”

This book covers the end of the world as we know it, or at least the end of humanity, and how that may come to pass. Chapters feature ways we‘ll go out like pandemics, nuclear weapons, climate change, overpopulation, war, cosmic events and more. Far from depressing, this was a fun look at the way humans have thought about the end of times over many years, through books, movies, etc.

AmyG Sounds fun 😳🤣 1mo
JenniferEgnor I was thinking about checking out this book when I saw it… 1mo
Chelsea.Poole @amyg ok, maybe the “fun” in my review wasn‘t the right word 😂 1mo

Defying Doomsday | Tsana Dolichva, Holly Kench

(2016) Here's a mostly-excellent collection of apocalyptic and postapocalyptic stories featuring protagonists with disabilities. Standouts for me are Stephanie Gunn's "To take into the air my quiet breath," about sisters with cystic fibrosis who survive a global plague; and John Chu's "Selected afterimages of the fading," about an apocalypse in which inattention causes the world to fade. I also quite liked Janet Edwards's "I will remember you."

Good Omens | Neil Gaiman

Mehso-so

I don't think I've ever even thought this, but the TV series were better. There were way too many characters, who did of said funny things that envolved the plot, but had no substance. It was however easy to follow, and I moderatly enjoyed the time, but I expected more. Maybe if I read it before I saw the series it would have been better, but we'll never know.
(audiobook)

TheIntrovertedDodoBird I agree that the series is better! Good Omens is my least favourite Neil Gaiman novel. Neverwhere and The Graveyard Book are absolutely amazing! 9mo

I have several books that I own more than one copy. But I think Good Omens is the most with 5 physical copies and 2 audiobooks (one full cast version & the original version read by Martin Jarvis). Plus, I have the DVDs of Good Omens season 1 along with the Script Book.

RaeLovesToRead Did you back the graphic novel version on Kickstarter? I'm looking forward to it 🥰 12mo
monkeygirlsmama I don't think I have more than one print copy of the same title, but I do have some in both print and digital format 12mo
Bklover Okay maybe I should read this! 😊😉. Oh, and I have 4 copies of One Hundred Years of Solitude😉 (edited) 12mo

wanderinglynn @RaeLovesToRead I did! Can‘t believe I forgot about the forthcoming GN!!! ❤️ 12mo
wanderinglynn @monkeygirlsmama for books I love, I enjoy collecting special editions or the UK version (which always has a different cover). 12mo
wanderinglynn @Bklover I love this book. Then again, I‘m a huge Gaiman & Pratchett fan. 😉 12mo
RaeLovesToRead It may even have been you that alerted me to it! 12mo
wanderinglynn @RaeLovesToRead 🙌🏻 Have you read about all of the GN artist‘s issues? What a year that woman has had! 12mo

#TeamWhoYaGonnaCall One more sleep then the spooktacular fun begins! Keep track of your points (don't forget the word search, and don't forget to time how long you read!!!) Also, keep us all informed with your reading and watching. Each #scarathlon post you make nets you 1 point. Write a review, cross things off your TBR or Bucket List, ask for movie suggestions. But most importantly: Have some frightening fun!

ChaoticMissAdventures Team any tips for a person with terrible time management, and who will read like 2 pages while in line? I am wondering if finding the audio book time and using that is considered cheating? I normally read 3-4 books at a time and am terrible at sitting for stretches of time to read. Thanks! 2y
Airykah13 @ChaoticMissAdventures I don‘t see anything wrong with using audiobook time. It‘s a good estimate. 2y

FlynnDewey @ChaoticMissAdventures Not cheating at all! Whatever you need to do to record your time. I generally set a timer on my watch. If I remember lol. 2y
bthegood @ChaoticMissAdventures keep count of time whatever way you need to and have fun -If I'm reading at different times throughout the day, in different places, than I guestimate based on total number of pages read that day 🙂 (edited) 2y
ChaoticMissAdventures @Airykah13 @FlynnDewey @bthegood thanks so much! There are so many ways for points, and it is a bit overwhelming! Going to do our best! 2y
FlynnDewey @ChaoticMissAdventures I totally get that feeling, trust me! I say, just focus on the areas you think will be more fun. Do more Readathons or focus more on the games. The points are nice, but the reading and the games are the best part for me. Don't stress about points. :D Just have fun! 2y
Melismatic @FlynnDewey I‘m keeping tabs on my reading thru the Bookly app - I find that helpful. Do we get points for hours read it is that the readathon thing? 😅 2y
FlynnDewey @Melismatic That's right! Readathons are a great way to build points, since you get them for time spent reading. And you can participate in more than one at a time! 2y
