I am... halfway? partway? through the most non-stop part of the summer parenting-wise. Still consuming media (there are the swim lessons, the karate lessons) but not so much thinking of any clever things to say about it.
Harbors of the Sun, the second half of the Raksura duology that follows the original trilogy and the novella collections, was fine. Better than Edge, more going on. I'm still not sure there was enough in Edge to be its own book but I also see why she split it where she did. Nothing in these quite hit me in either the sensawunda or the feels like the original trilogy but there were some good lines and moments in Harbors so I'm glad I read them.
Sorry to Bother You is a bitingly satirical non-franchise Black-directed-and-starring science fiction film, and I just reordered those descriptors twice trying to figure out the most natural-sounding order for them. Anyways, it is various things in which I am interested and I would love to see it make the Dramatic Long Hugo ballot and lose to Black Panther.
