I’ve put together a collage of some books from last months What are you Reading? post. It’s mostly random, but the more discussion something gets the more it stands out to me. Going forward I’m going to make a new post every month to talk about what people are reading.
Here is last months post. What are you Reading? (July 2023)
At any rate, what are you currently reading or plan to read in August?
Currently rereading City of Golden Shadow, the first book of the Otherland series by Tad Williams.
Children of Time - It’s fantastic. Easily digestable space fair about giant intelligent spiders in their war with ants. Humans are involved but I care little for them. Not going to lie, I’m mainly there for the chapters narrated by the spiders and they are expectional.
Loved the children of time! I don’t think I quite have arachnaphobia, but some of the spider chapters really creeped me out! (In a good way!)
I love spiders. One of my fondest spider memories is sitting at the park drinking a diet coke. There was a little jumping spider on the table and he (she?) was sharing the condensation on the bottle. Every time I set it down it would run over & lick the bottle. Cutest spider ever. Loved Children of Time so much.
