So did you decide on a book to read?
Yes! I picked up There's No Antimemetics Devision but I got more of the suggested books and will give them a try too.
How was it? Did it help with your slump?
I'd say it's going pretty well so far! It's a bit too much description or better said explanation of concepts for my liking now but the plot and main themes are quite unique and this makes me continue reading. I also like the main character, she's headstrong but she isn't afraid to admit when she is wrong or complement other characters who are more knowledgeable in a domain than her and doesn't back down in front of difficulties. Its main theme is related to memory and this is also a field I wanted to research more of. So even if the pacing is not what I need now for getting out of the reading slump, the book is interesting enough for me to keep going and eventually achieve that.
Huh, okay - I hope it does what you need. Thanks for sharing.
