+                after reading the first half, i would already recommend this
+                book. even without any context on the author or japan, this has
+                some really funny stories. i also like how i can almost hear

+                this one took a while. started reading pretty much right after
+                Native Tongue at the end of march. the book works well for piece
+                meal reading, since it's a collection of stories set in a
+                shared world. my favorites were the one where 'and the moon be

+                overall i think i prefer this over fahrenheit if i had to
+                recommend one. this one executes the almost educational tone
+                better while telling actually great scifi stories, which often
+                left me thinking about them later.

                 society is that way; the feminist context shines through
