A review by a_reader_obsessed
The Paper Menagerie and Other Stories by Ken Liu

3.0

3.5 Stars - for the short The Bookmaking Secrets of Select Species

I wouldn’t necessarily say this is an actual story, but the way Liu describes these species and how they communicate and pass on their culture is impressive. Such detailed originality needs to be acknowledged and appreciated. It’s a testament to sentience, where one wants to leave their indelible mark to forever remember and be remembered.
