I'm a father, husband, web developer, and aspiring to be a lot of things.
My literary interests are mostly science fiction, fantasy, comics, and some occasional programming or parenting books.

This was a very fun read. The science was very engaging, even if some of it was glossed over and a bit unbelievable. But it has compelling characters, and an entertaining storyline.
It's no surprise it's being adapted into a film.
This was physically hard to read sometimes. Black text on a red background on many pages. The visuals were often distracting from the story. I would've preferred it as a short story, rather than a comic.

As I was reading this novel, I was pretty sure that the narrator was actually a version of @neilhimself@mastodon.social. The acknowledgement seems to acknowledge this.
The story follows a man in his forties, remembering a fantastic event from his childhood. Most of the novel follows this story, with the main character being a bookish seven year old boy with few friends, who gets trapped in a fight with beings from another reality.
A lot of the story is a commentary on memory, and for some time while reading, I thought that perhaps the entire fantasy story was a memory concocted by the narrator to cope with the shock of discovering his father's infidelity.
It's a quick read and very enjoyable. It would be appropriate for older children, but just as enjoyable for adults.

It's a decent children's book. If you're an adult, don't expect too much, but it would be great to read to your kids, if you're a parent. If you want entertainment, and slightly fewer platitudes, watch the MGM film.

Has your company struggled to roll EOS out to all levels of your organization? Do …
I read this for my job. This is the program that my company uses to organize all its operations.
Having seen it in operation for the past three months, I can say that why applied well, it can really help a company work well.
I can definitely think of several companies I've worked at before that would have benefited from this program.
Although, I would also say that this definitely only works as part of the effort. This doesn't define company culture, which is also an important part of a functioning company.
It also doesn't seem like a program that would work for a very large company. Several hundred employees would be difficult to organize with EOS, I think.
