Re: What have you been reading lately?
I see what you did there, Surtac😊.
Exit party is a perfectly fine read, I just was hit in the face with what seems to be her idea of two possible futures for us, or maybe it’s just her what if for this book. I will keep going because I am engaged. Maybe it won’t end up being depressing.Â

also I have just seen some posts on social media suggesting that men don’t enjoy reading books by women in general, because women write about feelings and relationships and the men in question prefer sci- fi. Which got my attention as you might imagine. I believe that we have many brilliant men in this community who enjoy many female authors and in particular many female sci fi authors, am I quite correct about that?Â
Posts on social media? Some written by bots and others the amplified biased bedrock of the platforms. It becomes hard to know anything about the underlying actual craziness of the population. Surely here we love books by people!
