This will be an ultra-rare double reread for me. According to Litsy, I read and panned Snow Crash 6 years ago, but I'm reading it again for #ClassicLSFBC. I don't remember much about it except it was chaotic. I originally read Burning Chrome around '88-'89, so it's been long enough for it to feel new again.
It‘s gonna by May! #BingoBoard time!

A few questions about the book for those who have thoughts!
Q3: While clearly a product of the Cold War, the book ends on a hopeful note for humankind. This differs in its positive outlook from some other books from the same era. Did you find this a realistic outcome?

Q2: What did you think about Enoch‘s “relationship” with David and/or Mary? I was hoping Mary might somehow manifest and become his companion - alleviate his loneliness. 🤞

Q1: How do you think Enoch‘s experience as a soldier and veteran influenced his actions and attitudes as station master, if at all?

Kicking off the #AwesomeApril readathon today by hopefully finishing these two books this weekend. After that, who knows? I‘ve got plenty of group reads starting in May - #HashtagBrigade #ClassicLSFBC #LitsySciFiBC #NancyDrewBR & #FurrowedMiddleBrowClub - as well as my #Roll100 and #TBRTarot picks. So much great stuff to choose from! 😃
I really liked Way Station. It‘s such a hopeful book. Simak‘s vision of humanity‘s future is an optimistic one of a united galaxy. When so many people — including me — view humanity through a negative lens, it‘s nice to read something with a more positive outlook. Read The Wishing Game sitting on the beach and listened to Lightning Strike on my #audiowalk #ClassicLSFBC
Voting is now open for the May selection of #LitsySciFiBookClub Please cast your vote for your favorite. I will leave the voting open until the end of the week. May the best book win.😅

43/150 I finished this last night, but I wanted to think about it before posting. Can you describe a book as gentle? If so, then this book is gentle, and so optimistic about humanity and our future in a Galactic community (I see the Star Trek similarities). Enoch is an amazing character, giving up so much, to be the lonely, maybe outcast, keeper of his station. He gives up so much, because he wants so much for mankind. 5 🌟 read #ClassicLSFBC
