Finished 'The Left Hand of Darkness'. What does it say about me that I think 'Revolution Radio' is better?

The more I use my phone for things besides making phone calls, the more I hate it.

i'm listening to all of the books on serveral 'must read before you die lists. 'The Left Hand of Darkness' was on most of the them so i'm listening to it now. i love science fiction and have heard of this many times but never read it. when she died i knew i would.

I'm six chapters in and, while it's not a bad book, I don't think it's anything special. Is the point of it simply that gender fluidity is a key topic?

Help me out, please. I've been looking for a '100 books to read before you die' list. Well, not right before you die.

Anyway, I don't like any I found very much. I figured this lot might have suggestions which are more appealing.

If you can to indulge me, please reply with 1 suggestion.

Why is there so many stories of mistreatment of women still? I'm starting to believe all men really are pigs. Me? Yeah, I'm no prince, either.

Now I understand why Trump doesn't think he harassed those women. He thinks have dinner with someone means you have a great relationship.

Reminds me of the podcast Chronicles and Commons by Klaatu. Reasonably high praise if you ask me and I'll probably continue to listen. But I'm not into RPGs :)
