New Year, New Book Shelves

Happy New Year, Sounisian!

I recently discovered floating book shelves — a wall mount that allows you to decorate a room with books — and you know I had to do a QT one.

And you all said you wanted to see the rest, so here they are. Give these a try if you have the wall space!

A chat and maybe a Murderbot?

[ninedaysaqueen.livejournal.com]

Hey guys, it's been a while. Would you like to have a New Year's chat in the Conspiracy Room to catch up? Say the 11th at 2pm CT? 

We could also talk about getting back on the While-She-Knits train. After watching the television adaptation of Martha Well's Murderbot last summer, I knew we needed to do a group reading of this series! 

I believe many of you have already read it, but if you've never heard of Murderbot before, imagine an anti-social, chaos gremlin soap opera fanatic, who happens to have guns for arms, reluctantly protect humans on classical sci-fi adventures. It's amazing. And also, mostly told in novella format, though a couple of the volumes are novel length, so reading the series won't be a huge time commitment. It even has an amazing audiobook.  

Let me know in the comments if you'd like to read and discuss this series. I figure if we start in February we can finish around the same time that the new book, Platform Decay, is set to come out and read that as well.
