Happy April!
I believe my spouse and I are already on Chapter 3… well I am because I fell asleep in the car while water was being re-invented.
I think I might check out a physical copy at work today!

The Martian by Andy Weir for #BannedBookSkyClub
Just received my copy of The Martian by Andy Weir. It was almost impossible to find a copy that was not a “school edition”. First time reading any of his work. I am looking forward to the discussions on this one.

I didn't plan this & didn't know about #Artemis II until recently. But the #BannedBookSkyClub is reading #TheMartian by Andy Weir, which fits the current astronaut/NASA theme.
I'll start sharing talking points Wednesday, April 15, 2026 (or the evening before, depending). Join us! #BookSky

Are you out of fucks to give? Join the #BannedBookSkyClub and read a book with a lot of fucks, so much so they had to publish a classroom edition so teachers could get the book approved by school boards.
Discussion begins April 15, 2026. Link to feed in replies. #TheMartian #BookSky

April 2026 book is #TheMartian by Andy Weir. I'll start sharing talking points on Wednesday, April 15 (or the evening before, depending).
While not technically banned, a classroom edition was published since school boards were rejecting the book because of profanity. #BookSky

I’m a history lover and I started thinking about how Frankenstein is 208 years old + wondering how many times this book has probably been banned over the years. This is after all 😬

Why do you think Shelley opted not to have Victor describe how he was able to give life to the creature? Were there any hints?

How do you think Victor’s attitude toward modern sciences and his obsession with natural philosophy affected his decision making?

I bought this last year to read with the #BannedBookSkyClub but I didn’t get a chance to read it then. It seemed like now was as good a time as ever to read it.

Did you understand why Victor kept the creature a secret instead of asking for help?
