Great book, really well written. I cared more about the later half, about the TV shows and movies, but still an excellent book.

I love Poul Anderson, I've read so many of his books, as many as I could get my hands on. This one I found on Amazon for less than $2 so I thought I'd give it a read.
Sadly, Anderson tried way too hard this time, going way too deep in his characters and fixated on a ship with everyone having sex with everyone else. I ended up skipping so much junk dialog and character development.

Helpful, interesting, slightly oddly written. Good primer on designing things for 3D printing.

great book, lots of excellent ideas for simplifying business and personal writing.

Ugh. I don't know what to say. An interesting style of writing, learning the innermost thoughts of the participants simultaneously. Very long winded and very light on what was actually happening in the world. Did not like it, won't read any more books by this author.

Good, not amazing. Long stretches of stories I didn't care about and weren't related to the book. Not sure I'll read the next one.

Aaah, I love the murderbot diaries. This one was very different in a few ways and I didn't like it as much. First of all, murderbot is having emotional difficulties to the point where I felt like I was reading a Robert B. Parker novel. I just don't like that kinda stuff. Second, his stream of consciousness kept being redacted. Redacted? How? It's his stream of consciousness. Martha finally explained what happened but never explained why there was redaction. Finally, this book is nowhere as action packed as any of the others. It's like wells wanted to use this book to explore murderbot's emotions and psyche. Bah, who cares? This is a murderbot novel!

Awesome fun, I wish I could give this 10 stars. Just a great read and a great story.

What an absolutely lovely book. Perfect length, no multi-volumes (book 1 of x), wonderfully written. From start to finish an easy and fun read and I can't wait to read more by this author.

An absolutely amazing, eye opening book. Every American should read this to understand the systemic racism in America due to Lost Cause ridiculousness. Lee and all of the confederate soldiers were traitors and it's time the south accepted that. No reasons for confederate monuments anywhere but museums. Rename the roads, schools, and army forts. Other countries don't memorialize their traitors that way

Loved it, absolutely loved it. Classic Scalzi although not science fiction. Can't wait for the next one.

As with most Functional development books I get so far in them then it just becomes incomprehensible. This book is good, but as I started to get bogged down, the descriptions of what was happening became less useful. The author expected me to deduce the details of what was happening when I wanted the author to explain to me what was happening. I had to abandon it less than half way through because I simply stopped understanding it (and I have 30 years of experience as a software developer).

Great book, loved it. Easy read. Tired story though very similar to the first book in the series. Hidden government or military in a bunker pulling the strings. Wish he hadn't repeated himself.

Good book. Some boring sections; I was most interested in case studies, not history.

Really good, I love this author's work; always a very intricate foundation and very interesting. Unfortunately, this book takes almost 80% through before it gets interesting and you start to see connections between the parts. There is still a lot that I don't understand and I'm unhappy this is a three part series. This one took so long to read that I may wait a while before picking up the next one.

Great story, I'm just so disappointed that it's not wrapped up yet. Apparently there is a third book coming and I have no idea how many more. I may abandon it

Amazing story, well written and engaging. Very deep story line and we'll crafted. And, my favorite part, a stand-alone story. Not a book one of whatever that most authors can't seem to avoid anymore. I love her work, and loved this book. Will continue to read any book she writes.

Good book, even though I'm experienced with Eleventy I learned a few things from this book. Now I have to go implement them in my site.

Meh. The author uses a lot of passive voice which means longer sentences than needed to make a point. The rest of the book is the author experimenting using two ml tools (not AI) to code different things. Interesting, but not worth the investment in time and money.

great book, very interesting. Easy read, read it in less than two days.

Great book, excellent.

Very interesting analysis of data-related graphics. Wasn't what I expected, but still very (very) interesting.

Great book, loved it. Glad she didn't get greedy and make a third book here. A rather anticlimactic ending though.

Good story, I'd started to lose interest in this series, too much detail about how women were treated in the 50's and 60's but understanding that this what the series is really about. This one turned into more of a murder mystery and I really enjoyed. Reading pace picked up and I found myself wanting to see how it ended. It ended quite well.
