Great look inside both the literary and television industries.

Really enjoying the writing and story!

I felt the middle was dragging a little, but now it's intense!

Really enjoying the story and characters!

Interesting story threads and situations, and I'm eager to see how it's all going to come together.

Never a dull moment in the narrative style!

VanderMeer's mind is a very strange place.

I love how this story is developing.

I've laughed many times, and I'm enjoying all the inside details about podcast production!

A fascinating addition to the series!

Already as strange and unsettling as expected!

Still enjoying this quiet story.

Good detailed disaster survival story, combined with a character ruminating on her life and marriage.

Definitely a page turner!

Enjoying reading this in short bits, as each chapter is fairly separate.

Very much a quiet, character focused story. I'm enjoying the vignettes from the life of the protagonist.

Eh, kind of disappointed in this. I didn't realize the focus would be more on class warfare than disaster survival, and I don't think the social satire is especially insightful or witty. But it's a fast read, and I am curious to see the mysteries resolved.

Off to an entertaining start!

Good narrative voice, eager to get to know this character!

So curious to see where this is going to wind up!

This is highly engrossing. But also highly gross!

Already a fascinating series of nested narratives.

Wow, the developments that keep happening!

Once I got invested in the characters, this became a very sweet story.

I love all the close observation and the small shifts in character relationships.

Enjoying this, now that I've settled into the gimmick of the narrator's alienness.

Damn, this book's ability to switch from funny to gutpunch in a matter of paragraphs!

This is off to a great start, with two funny and perceptive narrative voices.

A fun story of later-in-life love, local politics, friendship, and food, set in the San Juan Islands of Washington State.

Oh wow, the way this is developing!
