Just a dude who likes to read. I like to like things, so I’m not afraid to give 5 stars to something that isn’t the peak of literature. That said, I’ll try to be real. Love recommendations and making friends, though I’m still learning how to even use this thing 🤷♂️

Very strong call to action. Quick read with tons of excellent recommendations for further reading. I’m somewhat squeamish about medical things, but did not have trouble here.

Enjoyed this (sequel to The Peripheral). It’s odd, there is always plot and it is exciting and interesting, but the really sparkly bit of these two books is the way they make characters of the near(ish) future and present. And I guess this is not uncommon in sci-fi, though perhaps not always commonly well-executed, but the way the “science fiction” broaches philosophical questions, ideas, debates without you (me, anyway) being aware until later is pretty magical. Good books.

Damn good memoir! The contents are rough, but McCurdy knows when to lighten a dark moment, usually with very dark humor (see: the title). I knew nothing about the author prior to this book; I hope she writes a lot more.
I heard this was good, even though the title makes my heart hurt (for reasons). I don’t think I would’ve kept reading except the author is quite engaging.
