on “Ask HN: What did you read in 2025?” ↗…fucking fire, thanks. Refreshingly direct and unfiltered, despite Scalzi being a well-established writer. If you are looking for a refreshingly fun light read to brighten up your day¹, try Scalzi's When the Moon Hits Your Eye (2025), in which the moon turns into actual cheese. 1: It includes the horrific death of a Musk/Bezos-like tech-bro with more money and tech than sense. Good fun!
