I wanted to like this one more (because I really enjoyed her Hugo-nominated novella), but it was maybe a bit too “these kids today” for me.

Fandom for Robots by Vina Jie-Min Prasad
Started: 7/4/18
Finished: 7/4/18
One of my favorites of the Hugo-nominated novelettes (the other being the other robot one – it seems I like robots), this one was really sweet.
Extracurricular Activities by Yoon Ha Lee
Started: 7/4/18
Finished: 7/4/18
This novelette is set in the same universe as Ninefox Gambit, which I wasn’t crazy about. I did enjoy this story, very much, but I’m not sure I would have if I’d read it first.
Children of Thorns, Children of Water by Aliette de Bodard
Started: 7/4/18
Finished: 7/4/18
I’m not sure I liked this novelette. The magic was odd, the setting was interesting, but I didn’t get enough background or explanation to get into the story.

Interesting novelette about a future where food is cloned/printed.
