Avatar: I'm offering you the most perfect sandball in the world, to enjoy, to throw high high up in the air, to watch its perfect round form fly across the blue skies, to watch it splash into the ocean with a satisfying plop, to see it dissolve into a million grains of sand that the waves carry back to shore.

Between the novels #LaDimensiónDesconocida by #NonaFernandez (which I just read) and #InésDelAlmaMía by #IsabelAllende (which I'm reading) and the film #ElConde by #PabloLarraín and #GuillermoCalderón (which I'm watching), I feel like I'm in an intensive about #Chile.

@tffmh @franciscawrites @bookstodon I went with Futurulogical Congress from Lem, but coul'dve easily picked Solaris or Star Diaries or Imaginary Magnitude or just about any of his books.

@arnoldtabbs @franciscawrites @bookstodon Somehow missed Vonnegut in my list, not sure how. Shoud've been there. I would've gone with Bluebeard.

@Abibliophobia @franciscawrites @bookstodon
Overstory and 100 Years both on my list... automatic follow 😁 And The Road could've easily been included. I LOVE that book.

Finished reading the wonderful White Cat, Black Dog by the ever magical @KellyLink
I particularly loved Skinner's Veil, but all the stories were amazing.
