This is a really interesting time travel story. A pandemic hits the country and time travel is invented to solve the problem. But it doesn't. So what happens to the lovers who get separated by this? What happens to the country? It was a moody and affecting story.
87. The Lady Astronaut of Mars by Mary Robinette Kowal
Lena Denham apparently has started a less than 100 pages bookclub. I think this would be a perfect addition to this bookclub. This is a wonderful look at relationships and making choices, set in a space age that sent us to Mars long, long ago.
88. How to Invent Everything by Ryan North
I heard about this book on a podcast (All the Books), and it's awesome! It's funny and hella informative!!!
89. City of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab
I had picked up A Darker Shade of Magic and couldn't get into it, so I wasn't really expecting to want to read anything else by her. This book, however, was not the same. It grabbed me right away and hey- ghost story!!!
90. The Spaceship Next Door by Gene Doucette
I have no idea how this book wound up on my radar, but when I saw John Joseph Adams's name on the cover, I said, "Sign me up!" It took me a little bit to get into it, but the author is from Massachusetts, and it's set in Mass, and that just tickles my NE fancy. I ever so enjoyed his candlepin bowling commentary! I read it out loud to my hub, who was not suitably impressed! Have to have lived in New England, I guess!! Basically it's a story about what would happen if a spaceship landed next door and then did nothing....
