Legends & Lattes

by Travis Baldree

Finished 2023-03-27

This came highly recommended from a few people but it didn’t do much for me. It was fine. I listened to it on audiobook and like six of the nine recurring characters are pendry/hendry/tendry or something? Why do that?
The Future of the Mind

by Michio Kaku

Finished 2023-03-27

Some really interesting stuff that, over and over, descends into silliness that is not just goofy in how it relates sci fi to real world tech, but extremely credulous or over-ambitious and not at all wary of the dangers of the things it’s proposing. The actual, scientific, brain stuff is interesting. The “maybe we could recreate The Force from Star Wars” stuff feels amateurish and goofy.

I think the resolution wasn’t as strong as the setup but it was still very interesting. Really enjoyed the book overall. A lot of fascinating philosophical questions wrapped up in a sci-fi thriller. Good stuff.

The Hidden Girl and Other Stories

by Ken Liu

Finished 2022-11-26

I really like the science fiction stories and found myself fading out during the fantasy ones. It’s a good read and I’d recommend it but I liked Paper Menagerie better
