Late to the Reading Party, but...
Mar. 16th, 2023 01:31 pm I wanted to note that I finished my first audio book, All the Birds in the Sky by Charlie Jane Anders. It was a weird experience having someone read to me when I know Charlie Jane fairly well, at least para-socially. In my mind, I knew how Charlie Jane would say "massive," and then the reader would read it and I'd think, how am I still hearing this in Charlie Jane's voice when this is clearly NOT Charlie Jane reading??!! But, I guess that's the magic of brains?
Anyway, I liked it well enough.
I'm trying to decide what to read next and have chosen Cadwell Turnbull's No Gods, No Monsters, mostly because it was available for immediate download and because I've read and LOVED Turnbull's short fiction, so I'm hopeful for this novel-length book. It won a Lambda, so I mean that's not nothing.
Does anyone have recommendations? I'm up for pretty much anything. It just needs to be an audio book and not too dark. I'm still not in the mood for anything super heavy.
