The Deading
by Nicholas Belardes

book cover


Had to DNF this one halfway through after reading it on my bus ride every morning and falling asleep every single time. I can only describe this book as exhausting. Desperately in need of an editor that could rip the heart out of this book and cut out all the fatty tissue. Has an all-timer bad line in it: "I'm seventy-five and falling apart. My body, not my womanhood, nor my Japanese Americanness." With a line that bad you know this author is not a woman nor is he Japanese-American because genuinely what does that even mean?

This book has creepy details like a mad scientist who takes children's lives, but the art makes it a little playful as well. Has you wanting to read the second book!

The Handover: How We Gave Control of Our Lives to Corporations, States, and Ais
by David Runciman
View in Library Catalog
book cover


Runciman tries to work a large amount of information into a tight book. He charts a unique comparison of the 'intelligence' function of states, corporations, and the implications of AI. Much of what he says is an argument against the ideas of centralized 'intelligence.' He discusses in some detail the implication on copyright and intellectual property from AI and mostly frames the deleterious effects of AI usage and development from a left-wing lens.

My Friends

A story about the endurance of true friendship. The characters are so vividly drawn I feel like I'd recognize them on the street. Occasionally slow, though the ending is quite satisfying.

Civil War On Sunday
by Mary Pope Osborne

book cover


This Magic Treehouse book was very informative- covering the harsh conditions and cruelty of the Civil War. Jack and Annie meet Clara Barton and (mild spoiler) a distant ancestor. My 4.5yo thought this book was tragic but interesting.
