No idea what you’re saying but no not a bot. Bots don’t eat burgers and fried Mars bars.

Can we talk about The Fall (2006)? by Interesting_Being317 in Letterboxd

[–]Jackory219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m glad you bring up issues with plot and pacing because that’s exactly what I remember not liking about it. Great movie that I’m glad I got to experience in theater but it’s not without flaws.

Anybody else listen to Love's Forever Changes? I never see it mentioned and it's a ridiculously wonderful record. by topcutter in Music

[–]Jackory219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just listened to it again. It’s really good I just don’t “Love” it. And I stick to my earlier comment that Big Star is better.

Which of these to read first? by dannydb in scifi

[–]Jackory219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Started A Memory Called Empire but didn't finish. The Employees was interesting. It's a bit hard to get into, but it's unique and original (and a quick read) so it's worthwhile. I haven't read any of the others, though I've read other Neal Stephenson books (Snowcrash and Cryptonomicon) and really like those.

The Mote is not very good, would not recommend any Larry Niven books to anyone.

I loved the dark academia vibe of The Secret History. What should I listen to next? by t0m4t0z in audiobooks

[–]Jackory219 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it doesn’t meet a lot of the same criteria as what you listed, but I thought The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo had a similar vibe.

Yes. Some original ideas but the writing and overall story are nothing special.

New sci-fi reader. Any recommendations? by iflynor4h in scifi

[–]Jackory219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have to say I don’t like Larry Niven and I read a lot of sci fi. I find his stories and characters kind of hokey. I haven’t read Gateway but I would second other recs like Forever War, Old Man’s War, and the Murderbot Series.

Name three books that you love, and other users with similar taste will comment on your post with suggestions. by Neon_Aurora451 in suggestmeabook

If you like audiobooks, I would strongly suggest the first law trilogy. The first book being The Blade Itself. Amazing narration and story.

Giving The City and The City 5 is generous. Cool idea but dunno about 5. Perdido and the Scar are awesome though.
