Ada Hoffman's The Outside
So this book is set in a world where humans created super advanced AIs that became gods (and then forbade humans from using advanced technology lol). Our protagonist is a postdoc whose advisor mysteriously disappeared, so now she’s in charge of a weird spaceship science thing. You know what, this was really interesting but trying to explain the plot is going to break my brain (a recurring theme of this book, ironically?). Lots of physics, metaphysics, and a touch of Lovecraft?? I was here for the cute lesbians and the bionic angels but the “what is REALITY” stuff is not exactly my jam. I wanted more GOD STUFF! If you’re into thought provoking sci-fi, though, this may be your jam! B/B+.
