After seeing it on the list in this thread, I decided to read Annihilation, and I just finished it. As others said it’s weird (I like weird, so it’s one of the reasons I wanted to read it). The writing style really reminded me of H.P. Lovecraft, which is to say it’s a bit stilted. I’m glad I read it - it’s an interesting world and the story is told in an interesting way - but it’s not a book I’ll recommend to a lot of my friends. Some of them, maybe.

Have any of you read it? What did you think?

    I liked it. Authority was decent. But I couldn’t finish Acceptance. There was just nothing in it that made me want to keep reading.

    But yeah, not anything I’d recommend to people I know.
