Hello! I'm faelif, also known as Ava. I'm 18 and am studying for my A-levels here in the #UK (double #maths, #chemistry and #physics). I program in #Python and am learning #Haskell. I'm #transfemme but I don't particularly feel connected with gender.
I'm interested in #mathematics, #STEM more broadly, #trains, #politics, #history, #linguistics, #TokiPona, #ScienceCommunication.
I listen quite broadly to #KPop, #JPop, #JRock, #musicals and #pop. I also listen to #ASMR.
Though I'm not very knowledgeable about these topics yet, I'm interested in #sewing, #HistoricalFashion, #JFashion, in particular #LolitaFashion and #EGLFashion, and #manga.
I used to be @faelif@mastodon.social, and I'm also at @faelif@mathstodon.xyz and @faelif@bookwyrm.social.

I actually finished this over a month ago but I didn't get round to reviewing it until now. I really enjoyed learning about English Revolution-era radical thought, and particularly the works of Winstanley; it's given me a lot to think about. I would say, though, that as a more academic text this book isn't written especially engagingly.

While I did find this book particularly dense in the classic word soup that a lot of sci-fi falls into, it made me consider the implications for Earth of the discovery of alien life in a way that I hadn't before - can't wait to read the sequels!
