Community RoomStep into the unknown — join our speculative fiction book club for bold ideas, wild worlds, and unforgettable journeys! This month's title is "The Future" by Naomi Alderman.
This is a group for speculative fiction fans (science fiction/fantasy) who like to read and discuss genre literature. Each month we'll have a discussion about a book, either a new release or an older book (but ideally something that most people haven't read yet), that we've read before meeting.
"The Future" by Naomi Alderman.
"While a few billionaires lead the world to certain doom, Martha Einkorn, working for a powerful social media mogul hell-bent on controlling everything, and Lai Zhen, an internet-famous survivalist, when their paths unexpectedly cross, work together to prevent the cataclysmic end of civilization." - NoveList Plus.
