I primarily listen to audiobooks using Libby, and sometimes Audible. Feel free to ask me about how I have 15 cards on Libby.

Great performance but I don’t want to keep listening with the disruptions from the artificially delayed releases and overall podcast ad kludge. Not super committed to the characters.

Kind of Murderbot vibes in the writing style, entertaining but not my preferred kind of writing. Not interested in the sequel. Too much sex and not enough colonial critique.

The anecdotal style combined with history, with each chapter focused on a different organism, does remind me a bit of both “fearless, sleepless, deathless” and “world of wonders”. I do wish there were few more scientific citations made as FSD did but I don’t think it really matters. Also knowing Patty as a mycologist, I was surprised that the first fifth of the book focused more on animals.

Yeah, not interested
The start was confusing and I'm not sure if the stories really needed to exist in the same book. That being said, each of the stories stuck with me in their own way, and supported one another sufficiently. I ended up liking how they got wrapped up. I do think that it would have been okay for the characters to be more historically mundane, to not have such notable epilogues, but maybe they only feel so notable because I know what they went through, making them not feel so mundane as they might in the grand scheme of things. Maybe I'm too used to folx at the margins not being recognized for the work, that it makes me feel self conscious when our simple actions of survival become a part of something that feels so much bigger than we realized.
