She talked about how difficult it is to navigate a new city and so much change at the same time. Mary talked about how she felt like for so long she was saving up all her energy to totally start over in New York. Shea asked Mary if, similar to the characters in her book, she felt compelled to change when she moved to New York in the early 2000s. One of the opening questions of the night hit at something that I've been wondering a lot about on the eve of making a major leap to New York City myself. ![]() Choi discussed fascinating questions that gave more insight into how her new book took shape. I didn't take many notes during Mary's conversation with Jenny Han, but last night, at Blue Willow, I took tons of notes as Shea Serrano and Mary H.K. Choi at two different stops on her virtual book tour for Yolk- once at Books Are Magic (located in Brooklyn) and once at Blue Willow Bookshop (located in Houston). I've been lucky enough to get to see Mary H.K. ![]() ![]() The slow burn really does fit the story well. Once I got past the first 50 pages the book got a lot more interesting. It does start off slow and has a lot of characters and emotions to cover. The is a great ending to the Alphabet Squadren trilogy, with room to revisit some characters as well as an ending for others. Personally I think it is past time she had her own book or series. I am glad Hera Sundulla had a much bigger part in this book. Here it is explained a lot better, however the characters are still changing and each choice opens up mor paths. ![]() One of the things I did not like about the last book was I really did not understand the characters motivations for the side they chose and the choices they made. Some time has passed since the last book, and aligences have changed. I would give this 4.5 stars but the more I though about it it deserves a round up instead of down. It is very much in the style of Battlefront Twilight Company by the same author. There is a lot of action in the book, but this is more the soldier's tale. I am glad it is 460 pages as it was all needed for the character development. This is an extremely emotionally heavy book. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The metaphorical devil and angel on your shoulder are actually lodged in your head. Apparently it’s human nature that we pay more attention to confident clowns than to insecure intellectuals, who can be perceived as a threat by our egotistical brain. Less intelligent people usually have illogical self-confidence, and the more confident a person is, the more convincing he is and the more others tend to trust and believe the claims he makes. To the brain, bad things are typically more potent than good things, and criticism typically carries more weight than praise praise is just telling us what we already know. The brain’s love of patterns and hatred of randomness leads many people to bizarre beliefs, superstition and conspiracy theories. The brain is primed to think up potential threats and makes us constantly afraid. Everything you are is a feature of your brain, and much of what your brain does is dedicated to making you look and feel as good as possible: the brain is largely egotistical. ![]() Our sense of self and all that goes with it – memory, language, emotion, perception and so on – is supported by processes in our brain.
