This was waaaaay darker than I had anticipated so it took me a bit to really get into it. The narrative structure was more like several vignettes loosely connected to one another with each chapter coming from the point of view of a different character not necessarily related to the character from before. I can see that it was crafted carefully and skillfully but it just wasn't my kind of book.

I wasn't feeling my forecasted books this week so I went off script and read the two books in the philosopher's series. I really enjoyed them and hope more come out soon.

#WeeklyForecast
My goal for this week is to finish my #CalibreRoulette pick and then get into the October picks for the SFFBC on goodreads.

I've had probably my best reading week in months with a total of five books finished. I really enjoyed most of them and managed to complete two trilogies in my quest to finish series I've started.

My next reading goals are to finish up my #CalibreRoulette pick for the month and then head on to the monthly picks for the SFFBC on goodreads.

It had a real old school sci-fi feel to it. #scifi #sciencefiction

One of the best SF books - beautifully written / translated with unique situations and memorable characters. A tale of absolute power.
Probably initially stories, linked together.
