Veronica Roth: Ark
⭐⭐⭐
One of those stories you read, think they are nice and soon forget about them.

Blake Crouch: Summer Frost
⭐⭐⭐⭐
I admit I was a bit bored during reading this and quite exasperated with the main character, but the nearer the end the more compelling it became and I was more than satisfied with the ending. One of those pieces that make you think (even though some of those things are about what you didn't like about the characters).

N. K. Jemisin: Emergency Skin
⭐⭐
Capitalism bad, eat the rich. Here, I saved your time reading it.

Amor Towles: You Have Arrived at Your Destination
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
An original spin on a theme of "should we genetically modify our children", except not really. It's about us, our take on life, the way we are shaped by our decisions, and how (and if) it can be predicted/predetermined. Best in the collection.

Paul Tremblay: The Last Conversation
⭐⭐⭐⭐
A mystery thriller, nice! It dragged a little initially but I understand why the author chose to write it this way.

Andy Weir: Randomize
⭐⭐⭐⭐
I don't understand quantum computing (and oh boy I tried...) so I can't tell if the things presented in the story could happen or not, but I don't care. It was fun, short, fast-paced, and I liked the twist at the end.

De modo geral, gostei da leitura por ser em contos, facilitando por poder ler um conto por dia tranquilamente, e ser de um tema geral que eu gosto bastante. Embora não leia tanta Ficção Científica, eu achei que foi interessante ver as diversas formas que os autores encararam e desenvolveram suas histórias. Os que eu mais gostei foram da N.K. Jemisin - a autora é genial na forma de narrar a história, muito diferente, o mundo criado, eu queria poder ler mais da história, saber mais, achei que foi é pouco rsrsrsrs - e do Andy Weir - que apesar de ser uma história simples, a forma da escrita me deixou completamente presa até ver onde iria.
