Reading When Moon Hits the Eye by John Scalzi.

I am still in the start, but the premise is hilarious. Looking forward to how everything unfolds.

What about all of you, what have you been reading or listening to lately?

Reading You Weren't Meant To Be Human by Andrew Joseph White for the podcast. Not far in but so far so good. Also still reading Dispossessed by Ursula K Le Guin.

I fucking loved The Dispossessed. Probably the deepest emotional impact any scifi novel ever left on me, and not because of the embedded love story. Something about creating a ~~communist~~ anarcho-syndicalist society on a different planet with adverse conditions just rubs me the right way.
