I started back in December 2025 and did one short reading block each month, so this is a momentous day to finally finish! Rating this high because this compilation of stories was so incredibly thought-provoking and each session unlocked something for me to reframe, experiment with, and reflect on. Yes, I did write a chapter in this book (20!), that was one small piece of this beautiful mosaic. I’m glad (thanks spirit team for the inspiration) that I ended up doing a whole podcast mini series on this book because of the resonant themes that emerged, sparks for research and introspection, and even tears along the way. Absolutely recommended for anyone who is spiritually curious as well as those, like myself, who already had their awakening — the guidance of these stories is still relevant because there’s always an uplevel around the corner!](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_fullsize/plain/did:plc:ejfffu4y3pzobrllmy7t5byc/bafkreibzkl3qsu65f6vr5y2zq55reb4b7gooyx3spvivh3x37oan5yu4ky@jpeg)
@mikebaehr.bsky.socialIs it bad that the more Murderbot gets in touch with its emotions the more I relate to it? System Collapse has MB using its obsession with TV in a creative way that I appreciated; Platform Decay starts with a teamup with MB's new "friend" that I wish lasted longer. #JustRead
@mikebaehr.bsky.socialAs someone interested in learning more about the workings of my own brain, I found this pop-sci book about cognitive neuroscience to be a little bit disappointing. Some interesting tidbits, but a lot of it just seemed obvious to me. #JustRead

@oconnor-steven.bsky.social#Justread Between Two Fires by Christopher Buehlman. Was best described by someone else as “A novel length Hieronymus Bosch painting”. Didn’t love it but it might be worth a second look down the road - 2.5/5
@mikebaehr.bsky.socialA terraformed planet is seeded with a viral intelligence by a megalomaniacal scientist, but it infects the wrong species. Meanwhile, another megalomaniac leads the remainder of humanity to colonize the planet. That's the setup for this era-spanning novel. Not recommended for arachnophobes. #JustRead
