Matthew's Journal

I've read all of these, and plan to vote thus:

1) “Fandom for Robots,” by Vina Jie-Min Prasad [my favourite by some margin]
2) “Sun, Moon, Dust” by Ursula Vernon
3) “The Martian Obelisk,” by Linda Nagata
4) “Welcome to your Authentic Indian Experience™,” by Rebecca Roanhorse
5) “Clearly Lettered in a Mostly Steady Hand,” by Fran Wilde
6) “Carnival Nine,” by Caroline M. Yoachim

( slightly more thoughts, mild spoilers )

I've read all of these. They're all really good, and I found ranking them quite hard! Still, rank them I must, so:

1) “Small Changes Over Long Periods of Time,” by K.M. Szpara
2) “Extracurricular Activities,” by Yoon Ha Lee
3) “The Secret Life of Bots,” by Suzanne Palmer
4) “Wind Will Rove,” by Sarah Pinsker
5) “A Series of Steaks,” by Vina Jie-Min Prasad
6) “Children of Thorns, Children of Water,” by Aliette de Bodard
