Finished reading The Midnight Library
book
Rated Piranesi 8/10
Striking descriptions and interesting narrative gimmicks. I was disappointed that the world-building wasn't deeper. Multiple characters considered themselves scientists studying the setting, yet we never learn much about it, and its strangeness doesn't matter in the end. Still, it didn't overstay its welcome.
Solid sci-fi action while you wait for the next Dungeon Crawler Carl. Shamelessly consistent with Dinniman's established themes. Surprisingly thoughtful world-building and an interesting conclusion manage to elevate this above its formula.
Rated Understanding Comics: The Invisible Art 10/10
A chapter of this book is in the New Media Reader, and it really fits. Comics feel very connected to computers... but how idk :P
