Translation State
Ann Leckie
I'm reading Ann Leckie's "Translation State" (the new novel set in the Imperial Radch universe) and one group of characters are Presger denialists. Because of course some people would decide the greatest threat to humanity is made up.

To Be Taught, If Fortunate
Becky Chambers
come to think of it, this is also why I dig Becky Chambers' book titles. "The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet"! "To Be Taught, If Fortunate"! "A Prayer for the Crown-Shy"! all solid gold titles!

Dinosaurs: Profiles from a Lost World
Riley Black
ha that's an impossible one to answer! The books I read are mostly too different to compare. The ones that made the strongest impression were "My Volcano" by John Elizabeth Stintzi, "The Hollow Places" by T. Kingfisher, and "The Last Days of the Dinosaurs" by Riley Black. https://t.co/5q6gSiKW5k
