First things first. The Terraformers was just incredibly awesome, so if you like science fiction at all it is so worth taking a look at!
Second thing – but clearly not any less important (because they’d never forgive me) – this week’s cat picture. This is George looking entirely too adorable. He also looks rather kittenish but the picture was taken just last week so he’s three and supposed to be out of the kitten stage. Which he clearly doesn’t think he is. Yet or possibly ever.
Third thing – I finished Babel Friday. I have thoughts. I have lots of thoughts. They are far from pleasant thoughts. You’ll see…

I have Babel from the library and there are two people waiting in line for it. Did you like it? I’m not normally a fan of sci fi.. but I liked her new book, Yellowface, and thought I’d give her fantasy books a try.

I’m glad to hear you liked Yellowface because I have the ARC for it and was honestly shying away from the author after Babel. I did not like Babel. At all. Which will be reflected in tomorrow’s review. If you’re looking to try some of her SF/fantasy I’d recommend The Poppy War instead. But your reading mileage may vary.
