Zivan - Childless Cat GuyI've finished: Raising Stony Mayhall by Daryl Gregory A wonderful zombie novel for people that don't like the killing fest that is most zombie media. Written in sections, each part explores new ideas about zombies, exploring their nature and treating them like an extreme type of marginalized people. Each turn the story takes supplies an interesting new twist that takes you on a new path away from the cookie cutter version of the Zombie Apocalypse story. I never expected to encounter a 5-Star Zombie novel. <a href="https://app.thestorygraph.com/books/f9f7d019-aee2-4726-bdc3-8e69ffc78a15" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://app.thestorygraph.com/books/f9f7d019-aee2-4726-bdc3-8e69ffc78a15</a><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/bookstodon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@bookstodon</a> <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/audiobooks" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@audiobooks</a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/SFF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SFF</a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/zombies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#zombies</a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/amReading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#amReading</a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#bookstodon</a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/AudioBooks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AudioBooks</a>

goldfishlaserRecently finished Cult of the Dead Cow!Enjoyed the book as audiobook. As an enthusiast for hacker lore, many of the stories were familiar, and I like Menn's telling of them. The stories are well-paced, well-researched, and told responsibly. Filled in gaps in my knowledge, introducing me to people and events I didn't know in the scene, as well as established connections between people and events that I didn't know. 5 stars, do recommend. <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#books</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/audiobooks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#audiobooks</a>

Lunaria Galaxie"Miss Fitzikuss" von Romy van Mader ist ein Kinderbuch, das viele witizige Ideen hat, die Kinder aber auch zum Mitmachen anregt. Egal ob es das Basteln von Minihäusern oder das Kochen von Pickelbohnen-Eintopf ist. Neben einer humorvollen Geschichte ist so auch für den Spaß außerhalb des Buches gesorgt.
