We saw VERY few nominations for books in December, and I know everyone is very busy with the season. We’ll open nominations for January at the end of the month so be thinking about it.

INSTEAD… we are going to be reading some short stories for those that still want to have something to read together.

Let’s read:

  • This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone
  • The Stories of Your Life and Others by Ted Chiang
  • The Machine Stops by E.M. Forster

If you have other suggestions we can throw them out here too. I’ll create discussion for these three for now.

    Incidentally, I have Pump Six and Other Stories by Paolo Bacigalupi on my reading list. I’ve heard good things.

      Hes great. “The Windup girl” deserved every award it earned.

      Its dystopian fiction that hits home because it’s not a speculative 60s/70s version of “robots will become our masters,” but rather possible brutal outcomes of the climate change that is already happening.
