Right, I'm a masochist neck-deep in figuring out who, what, and why. Except for Wings of Fire; that's my connection to my young'un.

I think Radicalized hits the perfect spot between being concerned with real issues and enjoying a good sci-fi story.

How was 1984 Julia? That looks interesting.

I was surprised by it. It took me the first third to settle into it. After that, it really humanized and gave me much more insight to the original work. Not a must-read but I'm glad I read it.

Thanks. Hmm, lukewarm praise. But if I see it in the public library I'll definitely check it out.
