Welcome to Litsy!

I am posting one book per day from my extensive to-be-read collection. No description and providing no reason for wanting to read it, I just do. Some will be old, some will be new. Don‘t judge me - I have a lot of books. Join the fun if you want.
This is day 227 #bookstoread #tbrpile #bookstagram

📘Qui a peur de la mort? by Nnedi Okorafor or tagged
✒️ I have no author with a Q in my library, neither in paper or ebook. None. I've read fanfic by QuixoticFemme, though.
🎥 Que la fête commence! (1975)
🥧 Quiche. Mushroom and cheese quiche, especially. Or any egg pie, really.

Excellent sci-fi, especially considering it was the author's debut. Mind-boggling worldbuilding, intricate plot, questions of identity and personhood in a world of near immortality where your consciousness can be transferred to a new body. I suspect on a reread I will catch many things I missed this time around. Though the quantum stuff might always be over my head (he credits a math think tank in the acknowledgements)...

This book was amazing. It isn‘t for the faint of heart, since it throws you into the world with little or no explanation of terms, tech, or events, expecting you to figure things out as you go. I‘ve read other books like this, though, and I actually enjoy the challenge. It‘s also a very satisfying story, even if it is setting up the story for books 2 & 3. Loved it! 💙

This was far more entertaining than I thought - my father did not like it as much because he had trouble distinguishing virtual reality and reality. It is a bit confusing at first, but I got the hang of it.
The worldbuilding is extremely complex and not really explained, so I stumbled upon a lot of things, but the story developed into a grand finale that leaves me wanting more of this - and there is (2 more books) 😄

Since my #TBRBingo version is slightly different I crafted a custom bingo card - If I finished a book in a series I can remove the post-it and replace it with the next book - Until the series is finished and I can cross it out!

Reading this collection of short stories by Hannu Rajaniemi now. He's kicking me in the heart! Style and truth. Wow!

I heard an interview of Rajaniemi on Geek's Guide to the Galaxy and was a bit intimidated because he has a Ph.D. in string theory(!). I'm going to give this a shot anyway. I need something to fill the void that Julia Baird's Victoria: the Queen will leave in its wake. #sf

#CharacterIdDressUpAs is Mieli. She's an Oortian warrior -- "so battle-ready she has a fusion reactor embedded in her thigh"—and wings, let's not forget wings.

This is a tight, at times confusing but ultimately rewarding far-future story full of innovative science fiction concepts. There‘s so much happening and at such a dizzying pace that it‘s hard to keep up, especially early on. There is a large amount of exotic terminology, combined with the lack of exposition and the in medias res start of the plot, making it an intellectually exhausting but rewarding reading experience. #outofthisworld #booktober

Look what came!!! My Book Bath Box! I'm so excited for this. The book has been on my radar for ages and all the goodies (a bath bomb, some tea, and a candle) are great! Definitely look this box up!
