I’ve put together a collage of some books from last months What are you Reading? post. It’s mostly random, but the more discussion something gets the more it stands out to me. Going forward I’m going to make a new post every month to talk about what people are reading.

Here is last months post. What are you Reading? (July 2023)

At any rate, what are you currently reading or plan to read in August?

    Children of Time - It’s fantastic. Easily digestable space fair about giant intelligent spiders in their war with ants. Humans are involved but I care little for them. Not going to lie, I’m mainly there for the chapters narrated by the spiders and they are expectional.

      I loved this book. I wanted to marry it. I didn’t fall in love with any particular species, but loved all their places in the story. The humans were pretty cool too, so call me a human lover, see if I care 😄

      Something about this book just blew me away. I couldn’t get into the sequels but maybe I’ll try again.

      Other books by AT are even weirder but somewhat less intense.
