Half-Cannonball with Murderbot (and FRIENDS!)

Network Effect (The Murderbot Diaries #5) by Martha Wells

February 17, 2021 by andtheIToldYouSos 3 Comments

Forgive the late Valentine, but Tor posted this last week and I forgot about it until RIGHT NOW. Oops! The best thing about finishing this book (of course I did not want it to end!) is that now I can read all of the CBR reviews. Hooray! I had to stop myself from peeking at your reviews before I even started listening to Network Effect– the temptation was strong! Now I can continue to bask in the Murderbot blow despite having no new adventures to […]

CBR Diversions – Literary Couples That Make You Swoon

February 11, 2021 by teresaelectro 48 Comments

With Valentine’s Day swiftly approaching, romance is in the air. To complement our featured romance book reviews, this week’s CBR Diversion celebrates our favorite literary couples. Who makes you swoon? I know many of you are historical romance fans who love a reformed rake who meets his match. Daphne and Simon have become quite popular in the zeitgeist after the Netflix adaption of Julia Quinn’s The Duke and I premiered. Personally, I’m a sucker for the slow burn courtship in urban fantasy series. In the […]

“Disinformation, which is the same as lying but for some reason has a different name, is the top tactic in corporate negotiation/warfare.”

Exit Strategy by Martha Wells

AHHHH, YOU DON’T SAY?! That phrase hit me this morning while I was failing to get ready for work in a timely manner- I was listening to this book, brushing my teeth, scrolling through twitter, and BAM. I’m pretty sure I heard that same sentiment expressed several times over while stress-watching the entire certification process on Wednesday night/ Thursday morning after, you know, homegrown terrorists were allowed to run amok in the Capitol. Lies are still flying fast and furious, and it becomes more and […]

If you need me, I’ll be exporting all of my anxiety directly to Murderbot.

Rogue Protocol by Martha Wells

Murderbot, you have done it again! You have ignored the order of my TBR pile, but you have also served as much-needed distraction. I had a VERY important event scheduled for this afternoon, and had made the arrangements for this to happen weeks ago, but as of 9AM today I had yet to hear back from the group running this event. This waiting translated into heart-pumping, sweat-pouring STRESS that has kept my edgy and more-or-less constantly awake since….Friday, maybe? Happy New Year! This event was […]

New Year, New (to me) Murderbot!

Artificial Condition by Martha Wells

January 3, 2021 by andtheIToldYouSos 3 Comments

Oh Murderbot, you charming unit, you! I enjoyed the first entry in this series, and I enjoyed it because y’all told me I would! Murderbot is a much-loved (and rightfully so) character here at CBR, and after reading the first entry back in November, I tried to pace myself. Well, I waited until a whole new YEAR *cough cough few months* before diving back in! I didn’t want to do what I did with Becky Chambers earlier last year – read through everything then spend […]
