It is time y’all. Time for team Space Lasagna to announce the difficult decision we’ve been mulling these last few months. After announcing our quarterfinalists in November, we’ve completed our review of these ten fine offerings. We are proud to announce the three books moving on to the semifinals (linked reviews by Rese Horn). AContinue reading “SPSFC: Semifinalists”

After much consternation, deliberation, and probably another unnamed “ation” or two, Team Space Lasagna is proud to announce the quarterfinalists for The SPSFC. Each team member read at lest 10-20% of 31 books this fall. We chose the 10 best books to move on to the quarterfinals as follows (in no particular order): A StarContinue reading “SPSFC: Quarterfinalists”

For Round One, Team Space Lasagna is reading 10%-20% of three books each week. We’ll each evaluate whether we want to continue reading each based on initial impressions.

OK, I know I just posted like two days ago, but my birthday was on a Thursday and that felt like the right time to kick things off.
