So at some point mid pandemic I discovered these short story collections in #PrimeReading, each revolving around a theme. This was one of my favorite stories, in a collection of speculative fiction on the subject of climate change. It was weird, unexpected, and clever.

And "Screw you, impending doom!" was a rather appropriate quote at the time.

Really enjoyed this piece from Amazon‘s 2018 Warmer collection. Captures so much reality, despair & hope in under 50pgs.

This is the first work I‘ve read by this author; definitely adding him to my #TBR (even before I know if he writes speculative fiction beyond this!!)

The only good thing about this is that it's short and free. The way the world ends? Don't know, it never happened here. I read the second in the series (Boca Raton) and felt the same way about it. Maybe we're supposed to finish the entire collection to get it, but I'm two in and ready to stop. #clifi

But this completes my #Booked2019 Spring season, so it has served its purpose! 😄

Cinfhen CliFi was definitely a dud category for most of us!!!! Glad you checked it off but sorry it wasn‘t entertaining 5y
alisiakae There weren‘t very many people that seem to have enjoyed their clifi pick, so you‘re not alone in that! 5y
