The Ninja Reader

Eh, I liked it.Probably for the same reason I will probably enjoy Shatter Me - I like new things. I like experimental, I like shiny, I like having to stretch my brain a little further than I usually have to, regardless if the end result is successful or not. THAT, I think, is an entirely different discussion.I should also point out, I started reading this while on seminar about global thinking where, you guessed it, we kicked off with [b:The Limits to Growth|647942|The Limits to Growth|Donella H. Meadows|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1176732352s/647942.jpg|634085] and regardless of whether you agree or disagree with that report, its ideas make for some serious fiction. In fact, I'm pretty sure that all good dysopian writers since 1972 must have read it, because the themes of human greed eating itself out are awfully common. And discussing that report made Cloud Atlas hit just a little bit stronger than I anticipated it would.
