[Gravity Aided]

Sci-fi is my go-to in terms of entertaining myself, albeit I much prefer space opera to dystopian-type stuff. But Fahrenheit 451 was one I've rather enjoyed. OTOH Margaret Attwood's "The Handmaid's Tale" just weirded me out. Not the subject matter, but just that it was very odd, and sort of seemed to stop in the middle of the story and leave a load of loose ends.

No kindle here. Reading glasses and a nice paper book, although that does become problematic at bath time LOL!

Like Orwells "1984", you have to go to the afterword and read between the lines.

Perhaps follow that with A Canticle for Liebowitz, or The Postman.

I've read neither, so will keep an eye out in the usual places where I obtain secondhand books. Ta for the heads up

I did. But it still kind of left me feeling like it was a cop-out on the author's part.

Right, time to bank the fire and head off to bed.
