John Scalzi

When the Moon Hirs Your Eye

Lindsay

I just don’t see the benefit of the United States admitting it got taken for a ride by a billionaire who has more entitlement than he has brains.

“I’m not straight, I’m just lazy,” Cassie said. “I don’t want to have to go looking, and men hit on me more. So it’s just a numbers game at that point.”

Mr. Scalzi is really great at throwing out a completely ridiculous scenario and then , not really answering the whys or hows of it, instead focusing on the people and their reactions. In this case, the moon suddenly turns into cheese, and we are off and running!

The people are now centered around this bizarre event and we get glimpses of their reactions and feelings. From scientists, conspiracy theorists, a priest having a crisis of faith, regular people trying to make sense of it all, a clueless billionaire man child, and more. The different perspectives make this a fresh and fast read. At times ridiculous, hilarious, yet hopeful and sweet make this a really good read! 

Thank you Netgalley for the opportunity to read this book early!
