So, a million and a half years ago, I think on my old blog, you told me I should read Ancillary Justice and like hell yeah, I'm def reading a recommendation from a beloved mutual. And the first few chapters were disorienting in a way my ADHD Did Not Like but. I spent several years Knowing that if I could get past those first few chapters you'd be Right Finally broke the barrier in my brain preventing me from enjoying audiobooks and yeah, you were right. Fantastic book, 12/10, would trap myself in a car with no way to stop the audio without pulling over in order to force my ADHD to cooperate again. Love a character who is both the ultimate failgirl and a wet cat of a man at once (also I've been having a fun time going "wait, what do you mean that's how that's spelled" now that I've seen all the character and place names written down)
fantastic. i remember reccing it to you!!! it was indeed a literal million years but you did muscle yourself into reading that book all right! the imperial radch series was my Obsession for A Long Ass Time. incredible. you've gone through some heroic efforts to read it, that stuff can indeed be kind of dense and disorienting. but man did it just sink its teeth into my mind.
wow this is delightful in many ways... is this book Not simply something that is premium material for Thinking Thoughts Forever??? listen if you ever want to think radch thoughts at me. i am here.
local failgirl is a poor little meow meow. this series is truly full of the Most characters of all time. so many of them are literal war criminals. and i can't stop thinking about them fondly. anaander mianaai my beloved.
also loooolll the audiobook name spelling game. must have been a real trip with these for sure
it's also one of those books that's so enjoyable to re-read... but anyways. i'm glad you did end up enjoying it.
(i finally shook the years-long ancillary justice obsession free by becoming obsessed with the Murderbot Diaries a few years ago. xD)
