2018 books

25) "Sharing Knife, Volume Three: Passage" - Lois McMaster Bujold

Hey, shut up, I like books where people get a little angsty about moral decisions and get talked out of angst by ridiculously level-headed friends/parents/sweethearts, okay? Yeah, it's a re-read, and you know what? I enjoyed it just as much the second time. Probably because I have the memory of a tse-tse fly, but whatever.

I really need to start some kind of 'other' tag, I guess, but "The Flowers of Vashnoi" was a nice longer-short-story (I guess?) by Bujold.

Ekaterina Vorkosigan goes into the radiation zone and deals with the mutants she finds there, in a very sensible and level-headed Bujold heroine style. I liked it, even if things do often work out a bit pat in the end. As with many of her stories. I think I love Bujold for her apparent belief in the innate goodness of the majority of people. I think it's unrealistic, but I like reading such nice stories.
