Under the Dome
Mysterious, impenetrable dome cuts off town from outside world. Factions form, violence and mayhem ensue. In Under the Dome, Stephen King has created a microcosm of humanity to mirror our faults as well as our best qualities. This novel is a treatise on human nature. Captivating and nail biting. Masterful.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

The Tainted Cup
The Tainted Cup by Robert Jackson Bennett I made this entire series to write this review. The 2024 Hugo Winner is a Holmes and Watson style whodunnit taking place in a fantasy world that blends Area X from the Southern Reach Trilogy and The Lost World–more on the setting later.
