I found this book by chance in a cute little bookstore, and I hope I'll learn something about this dark chapter of Argentinian history. I'm a bit afraid of what I'll find.

I listened to the audiobook in German.

@InfiniteTypewriters Definitely not something I know :) I will, it'll probably take me some time though to finish :)

@InfiniteTypewriters I guess a lot of it depends on the quality of translations and also if they're somewhat advertised in other countries, and after your comment I checked wikipedia and it seems there's some discussion especially in the US that it's not proper sci-fi so that might be a reason as well. Do you read in English or in German? As you've mentioned reading the description I guess you understand German?

@InfiniteTypewriters It's a huge series, so entirely possible, but I only read one book of this series before (the one written by Andreas Eschbach) so not an expert at all :) I think it's pretty popular in Germany?

The book was recommended in the fediverse so I thought I'd give it a try, I quite like it so far. It has a few slightly stereotyped descriptions/tropes so far (love at first sight, ugh), but nothing that bothered me personally or that made me enjoy it any less.

I listened to the audiobook and loved the story, the characters, and how they explored their feelings about gender and fate.
