Finished When Moon Hits the Eye by John Scalzi.
The book is divided so that each chapter is a new day, and it’s from perspective of new people. So there is no story of certain people, rather it’s about the “event” and we see things from different people’s point of view throughout the book.
I didn’t know that, so it took some getting used to, but once I had come to terms with that it was a very interesting book.
Highly recommended for soft sci-fi fans.

Currently reading: Children of Strife by Adrian Tchaikovsky (Children of Time #4). I really enjoyed books 1 and 2 in the series but found 3 to be a bit messy. This so far feels like a return to form and I’m enjoying it much more. The mantis shrimp seem to be an addition to stick to the older framework but I’ll reserve judgment once I’ve seen more from the one character we’ve met
Just finished: Murder by Memory by Olivia Waite. An interesting little premise that blazes through so fast that you don’t really get to examine the scenery or dive into any ideas. It’s not bad, but if it’s aiming to be a cozy mystery the rapid pace seems discordant
