I just finished SP3 and Redshirts for the book club. It was great on a re-read and I'm really looking forward to the meeting on Sunday. First half of the book is quite different to the second part and I was quite poker-face in last week's meeting as I didn't want to give anything away. That Coda 2 though...
As of what I'm actually reading right now - Pratchett's Thief of Time as my commute audiobook and I'm reading Memory's Legion (short stories collection from Expanse universe).
The prologue in Redshirts was hilarious though the rest of the book didn't particularly wow me. I think I'm just not a big Scalzi fan because Old Man's War was also just kind of "okay" for me. It's amusing when it plays with tropes, but I think I just didn't particularly like the characters.
I remember the Codas being a really fun treat though. (Part of that is maybe the way they were so experimental, and at the time I read it I didn't have a lot of experience with something like them.)
Somebody said in book club discussion that the rest of the book feels like a setup for codas.
lol, I'd believe it.
