#kaijupreservationsociety ch 9. Time for kaiju research.
This book really leans on leaving e.ver.y.thing to the reader's imagination. Descriptions of buildings and vehicles? Great. Descriptions of living things? Nonexistent. This book is relying solely on dialogue to get things across.

#kaijupreservationsociety ch 7 the rest. People get welcomed, they get to their private rooms, Jamie finds a letter from the previous person.

#kaijupreservationsociety ch 21. Regrouping to spring into action. Can't contact our world. Time for the newbies to show their mettle once again.

#kaijupreservationsociety ch 8 More debriefing, and more descriptions of how the kaiju live. They're described as small mountains and about 1,000 ft tall, I think. So more like big hills to me.
Definitely an idea book, not a character-driven book.

I understand allowing readers to fill in the gaps, but come on, "looks like grad students" is not an adequate description. I am stupid. Please give me more than ethnic-sounding names.
Other than that, yay! Welcome to the #kaijupreservationsociety!

#kaijupreservationsociety ch 20. Shift from quippy to serious now. Bad stuff. I suspect the billionaire. He was asking lots of fishy questions. Why people didn't ask him why he was asking fishy questions, I don't know.
People might be dead, too.

#kaijupreservationsociety ch 7: Aparna and Kahurangi both have long hair! So by process of elimination, Jamie, Tom, and Niamh have short hair.
Sorry, I don't usually post abt character descriptions, but the descriptions are so vague about everything (unusual for SFF) that each one is a revelation.

#kaijupreservationsociety ch 11. Explosion and RLH (run like hell) protocol.
These last two chapters have been really fun. Still don't know what any of the humans look like, and vague descriptions of the kaijus to let your mind fill in the rest, and luckily I have pretty vivid mental imagery.

#kaijupreservationsociety ch 5. Infodump chapter! But I'm a nerd and this chapter wasn't too long or boring to me. Still not sure WHAT a kaiju is, but know more about how the world was discovered. I still don't think I'm mentioning anything that wasn't in the book blurb.

#kaijupreservationsociety ch 3. Still nice and quippy but feeling less like a social media thread. My pretend Scalzi tweet/skeet inner voice is finally giving way to character Jamie's voice. Jamie signs up for KPS without quite knowing what he's signing up for. Dr visit and 1st paycheck.

Started reading #kaijupreservationsociety by @scalzi.com. It’s early but enjoying it. There’s a biting sarcasm to the writing that I’m totally digging.

#kaijupreservationsociety I finished it last night. A nice actiony, quippy ending. Yay!
I have mixed feelings. On the one hand, I WANTED my next read to be an easy, fast paced, lighthearted one. And this was.

#kaijupreservationsociety ch 18. More science talks, more like lectures to the guests. I do not like the billionaire's questions. He's gonna do something stupid because of money, isn't he?

#kaijupreservationsociety ch 17. A touring billionaire donor comes to visit, tries to bribe someone, gets humiliated. It was very satisfying, though I'm worried about what might happen in the future.
