2020 book 7

Ada Palmer's Seven Surrenders
The second Terra Ignota book goes all in on philosophical/theological debates and (deliberately unpleasant) debauchery, but eventually plot does come into it and things pick up a bit. I think I like these books, but they also really bum me out. They do feel more like thought experiments than novels at times, which is not really my jam. I am /thinking/ about them a lot, so I guess they are effective in that way? I am curious enough to read the third, at least. B/B+.
