The Laurel Lekfow narration is so well done. I wonder what other audiobooks she has narrated, because honestly I'm not having much trouble with her narration at all!

I think the reason so many young millennials and gen x'ers went feral over this book is because Ellie Arroway's childhood as a girl interested in tech and math but also kind of uninterested in school is so intensely relatable.

Listening to the audiobook while I emerge from migraine-brain land, narrated by Laurel Lekfow (what a gorgeous voice, she's great). I don't usually handle audiobooks super well, but I've read Contact before so I'm hoping that will help compensate with my slight audio processing issues!

In the end, history will judge our communities not by how many friends we had in high places, but by what we did to support social justice for all.

With one hand, neo-liberalism offered individual rights; with the other, it took away most people’s ability to enjoy them.
@leifur How was this one?
@blueberryjams@mastodon.social It's a very neat little book. It exceeded my expectations because I'm not super into "slice of life" as a genre. There are little bits of the book here and there that I would have liked to see a little more fleshed out but that's on me, I always want my romances (even if they're side plots) to be very romantic, but I guess that was not the priority! Which is ok!

Started reading this immediately after I closed Bookshops and Bonedust and I did like this better. The « Coffee Shop AU » vibe did not put me off (former barista, I don't find coffee shops cozy, it's a me problem, not a fanfic problem) and I liked all the characters though there was a bit of googling to figure out the contours of this fantasy world. Orcs are unmistakable, but I had no idea what a rattkin or a hob is, for example. I still don't know what the character Calamity is supposed to look like. But it didn't much matter, because I had a blast reading this, and would definitely read it again.
