A review by toryhallelujah
Forward: Stories of Tomorrow by N.K. Jemisin, Blake Crouch, Paul Tremblay, Amor Towles, Veronica Roth, Andy Weir

4.0

You Have Arrived at Your Destination (Amor Towles): 3.5 stars, rounded to 4. Mapping out your kid's future. Bleak.

Summer Frost (Blake Crouch): 3. AI video game becomes sentient.

Emergency Skin (N.K. Jemisin): 5 stars. "Advanced" creatures returning to a "primitive" planet. Effing hilarious.

Ark (Veronica Roth): 5 stars. Beautiful, aching sci-fi that loves our world. Biologists cataloging plants at the end of the world.

Randomize (Andy Weir): 2.5 stars, rounded to 3. Smart at gambling but incredibly bad at dialogue.

The Last Conversation (Paul Tremblay): 4 stars. Being trained to be yourself when the world is gone. (I went out right away and read The Cabin at the End of the World.)
