A very slow start to build a solid world. Lots of action, cool characters, a very 80's sci-fi futuristic madness. A great ride.

LC reviewed The Clean Coder by Robert Cecil Martin
Review of 'The Clean Coder' on 'Goodreads'
2 stars
I work with developers and I'm always amazed on how unprofessional some of them are and how they think it's totally okay because the "I'm a software developer" phrase is like a protecting mantra that gets stronger and stronger the more they recite it. Along with the "I know nothing of styles".
Anyway, it's a cool book. It's like listening to your old nice uncle talking about how he learned to be a professional. By the hard way, btw.
I lack soft skills so I appreciate the content of the book.
LC rated Ethan Frome Edith Wharton: 3 stars
Review of 'Violet Evergarden, Side Story, KA Esuma Bunko' on 'Goodreads'

There's something about the narration that I don't enjoy so much, this way of repeatedly presenting the characters again and again and again. I'm giving my three stars because of that. Everything else is pretty good. That last story about the Postal Wars was a bit too much for me hahaha I mean, yeah right. A bit crazy, but it does actually happen.
