Sara's reading log

I am a book hoarder and reader. My main genre is SF, but I also love magic realism, fantasy and general fiction. Favorite authors are Iain M. Banks, Ursula K. LeGuin, Haruki Murakami, José Saramago, Isaac Asimov, Ben Aaronovitch and more. My rating system is based on five stars. I rate books based on my expectations and what a books aims to be. This means that the brilliant 'Fahrenheit 451' gets five stars because I thought it would be good, people said it was good, and it was good, but 'A Closed and Common Orbit' also gets five stars because in its series, in its style, I really enjoyed it and was not disappointed.

This is a short story collection by Ray Bradbury. I know Bradbury from Fahrenheit 451, a dystopian/science fiction novel that I thought was brilliant. This collection mostly contains non-science fiction, non-futuristic stories, some with a weird element. I always find it difficult to review story collections, and this one is no different. The stories were enjoyable, some even good, but all in all… meh. Entertaining, but not brilliant. Three out of five stars.
