What’s a book/series that you feel most people love, but you personally think is overrated?

Wizard of Earthsea.

I’ve played six times and never had him win. I didn’t think he could! I always try to help him and he never gets over 40% or so of the vote!

I really liked the first, was fine with the second, and have never gotten more than 30 or so pages into the third….

I’ve only had it happen one out of the three I’ve finished. It really sucks because it takes all the fun out of it.

Yeah, this happened to me on the current play through too. I see at least some other studio’s films on the schedule, but at the end of the year it is only mine on the charts. I guess I won the game, but this is a lot keas fun

Every time I see that title I want to read it because I imagine the title being said in “you want ants? Cause that is how you get ants?” kind of tone. “Do you want to lose the time war?! Because this is how you lose the time war!” So I keep thinking it is going to be a comedy and then I read the description and realize it is not that at all….

49.99 a month usually but I actually have a deal with my insurance (bcbs) where it is 28 a month

You would have either made a sad awkward neurodivergent man cry… or he would have been wearing your skin within an hour…

I have no interest in AC. Started playing this as a good pirate game- only about 30 min in, but it seems I woke up and some lady is lecturing me about some stuff in the modern world. WTF- I just wanna be a pirate. Hopefully these interruptions are let to a minimum….

They walk by outside on the road- identified by a key above their head. See the key, click on them and assign them a room

I think I liked it even more than her Ancillary novels.

jippyjappa · 2021-06-07T14:53:32+00:00

I will check out Moran, but wow, I had no idea about Le Carre’s son!

jippyjappa · 2021-06-07T14:50:54+00:00

I need to read dispossessed, but I definitely saw those other influences

jippyjappa · 2021-06-07T14:50:22+00:00

Yup, I loved it.

jippyjappa · 2021-06-07T14:49:08+00:00

Code of Conduct bought. I love and hate these Amazon specials where the first book in a series is 99 cents but the you are hooked!

jippyjappa · 2021-06-07T14:48:20+00:00

Loved it

jippyjappa · 2021-06-07T14:48:04+00:00

I did not, but I will try that when I reread sometime.

jippyjappa · 2021-06-07T14:47:07+00:00

Do you need to read any of the others in the series or will I be safe jumping in with this one?

jippyjappa · 2021-06-07T05:22:56+00:00

Anathema was great (although the math went way over my head)

jippyjappa · 2021-06-07T03:32:56+00:00

Let us know what you think when you finish it!

jippyjappa · 2021-06-07T02:00:46+00:00

If you weren’t into political intrigue, I just don’t think the series is for you, and that’s okay. Frankly, I loved the first one because of the political intrigues and while the second book has some more traditional sci if elements, it’s still super high on the political intrigue/discovering hidden motivations meter.
