    I read the Fifth Season a few years ago and just fell head over heels for her writing! I would absolutely recommend the Greats Cities duology when you finish up the Broken Earth!

    'The Humans' was a really different story. The perspective of an alien learning about humanity from the inside made me think about how we are all kinda doing that. Each of us is unique but we are trying to blend into the group with everyone else. Who hasn't felt like an alien at times? A great story.

      @@melanietahna did you see how he had to write three different writings and due to feddback from focus groups he did an amalgamation of all three. Also saw some big magazine, forgot the name, but like some Esquire type of magazine, said he was risking a lot with this book as their review. That screams controversial ending. Probably were getting some big deaths 😭😭
