Read 13 books for this "readathon", though I believe I was the ONLY one actually doing it this year.

Look below for the prompts that I accomplished.

It was a LOT of fun.

I wanted to read for all the prompts, but that didn't happen, unfortunately.

Next year, maybe.

4 Stars #Alien franchise #Alien³ (unproduced script by William Gibson) with novel by Pat Cadigan

I can see why it wasn't produced, but "if only". I didn't like what they did instead, but really liked what they did here.

4.25 Stars #RedSpace 02 #Revenant-X by David Wellington (and others)

#SpaceOperaSeptember 2025 #SOS #Horror story prompt, also.

I don't know why, but Horror in space doesn't bother me as much as in other genres. I just feel space, itself is horrifying. Right?

Conclusion of the "trilogy". I hope & pray the author revisits this universe & explores more there.

There's so much more to mine in this universe. Please write more.

It was my 3rd time reading this book & I still LOVE it. Such an impressive first book for any author, let alone a #SelfPublished one.

This is a great story, with a unique narrative style, mostly told from the viewpoints of people who've been marginalized.

Good story, but the ending is still a problem. The first book in the duos of this series, doesn't really have a ending that is satisfying (to me).

Character driven story with very little actual plot. Been wanting to read this series for a LONG time. Interested to see what all the fuss has been about.

I'm doing #SpaceOperaSeptember #SOS for 2025...since it started.

I've got my books set, and ready to go (below).

I'll be reading books outside of the readathon, too.

Should be an amazing month.

If you're interested, the prompts are below. Any questions?...watch this:

I'll carry that torch.

I know that it takes a lot to put on this readathon. All of us readers appreciate everything you do.

Want you to know...that it is the ONLY readathon that I do EVERY year. I'm a huge #ScienceFiction reader, but dedicating a month SOLELY for #SpaceOperaSeptember is important.
