Still, I kind of loved the second twist
OK. I stopped at the first Reveal, because I couldn't read anymore what with my eyes rolling like that. So I'll pick it back up and try again.
My other problem with
Embassytown
is not liking the POV character. I guess that's going around.
ETA: P-C's whitefont: I was going to ask you, b/c of the name and all. Tell him nice work.

Yah. She's not extremely compelling. She does, in the end, do things, though, which I got to before my eyes flipped out (not the way yours did... at least I think. Hmm. Suspicious.).
I'm trying to think whether this is his first female narrator since Bellis?
For Blackout, please tell me she doesn't do the
clone = adult version of person complete with memories
.
I haven't started
Feed yet,
but I am a little bummed the guy in the BEA line made me choose. I wanted to take both that and
Deadline!
I think Ben might read
Feed
before I get to it, though, since I'm entangled in the Martin books.
For Blackout, please tell me she doesn't do the
Spoilers! You have
the last chapter to go on. Speculate as you will.
All I'll say is
that what she does is interesting and I dig it, even though I wasn't sure about it at first.

Well, you wouldn't have wanted
Deadline
without
Feed
! That's not really a CHOICE. Come on, BEA guy.
Yes, I know - that's why I whitefonted it, silly.
I'm just hoping that she doesn't do that - it's one of my minor peeves.
I'm currently reading Connie Willis'
Blackout
and skimming this conversation is confusing. But I figured it out.
An excerpt from the audiobook of A Dance with Dragons is up on the Random House site. (There is an excerpt from the ebook too - and it's a different chapter.)
Awesome, I'm in the Acknowledgments
for
Deadline
too, even though I still didn't do shit! At least I'll earn my spot for
Blackout.
Toddson, did you read the excerpt from
Blackout
? It may address your question.
Actually, that's what led me to the question.
