Historical 5+/5
Evelyn Hugo, a fictional Marilyn Monroe, tough enough to survive the meat grinder of Hollywood, tells her life story to a young memoirist—with a twist. Fun and engrossing as a true-celebrity gossip tell-all from the fifties and sixties, this novel is at its heart a mystery with clues dropped all along the way.
Just finished chapter 33.
Science Fiction 5+/5
Ryland is recruited to join a small crew of astronauts on a last-ditch attempt to save the solar system by finding the source of an interstellar infection and stopping it. As in The Martian, Andy Weir makes tons of science not only believable, but entertaining as Ryland—and Earth’s—jeopardy skyrockets.
Edited up to Chapter 30.
