    I really, really looked that book. There were just so many good things about it. If you haven’t read it, and you’re inclined to read a good science fiction novel, don’t let anyone tell you anything about the plot, just read it.

      When we play D&D over discord, someone invariably eats dinner and turns off their cam. When asked “are you still there?” the answer is almost always “eating is gross”.

        Avoiding spoilers, but that relationship is so wonderful.

      I’d also suggest when you get to a part that’s pretty obvious when, listen to the audiobook a bit. It really helped add to the experience at least for me.

        Never been a big audiobook person. I read a ton, but it’s quiet time.
