Well ....I'm not sure how I feel. Ambiguous maybe? That was a very quick read. It was interesting. I can see why some people love it and I can also see why some readers may not care for it. Here is the link if you would like to read it :http://www.galactanet.com/oneoff/thee...
Find all of my reviews at: http://52bookminimum.blogspot.com/A review told in giffery . . . Soooooo everyone else read The Egg and were all like . . . Then I read it and was all like . . . Why is that? What can I say? It’s 4 pages long and didn’t move me like it did everyone else. Shit happens. For some reason I was thinking it was going to be something a little more like this . . . Like I said, I'm an asshole.All I can do is offer my sincerest heartfelt apology . . . And remi...
Was the inspiration for this story the Beatles, "I am the Walrus"? "I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together and the chorus,I am the egg man, they are the egg men...The whole story encapsulated in two lines!____________________Or, more sensibly: Does God exist? Does anyone exist? Is this short story really an example of metaphysical solipsism? Read the story. It's 3 minutes of your life 1.5 if you are a fast reader!)....Link (thanks Alina).(Based on a philosophy of subjective
I honestly have no idea what to say except that it may not be the most agreeable idea but the concept is really thought provoking. You can read the short story here.Again, HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AWESOME KELLY! (Click her name for her short review>) I told you I’ll make it good! haha!
“Every time you victimized someone,” I said, “you were victimizing yourself. Every act of kindness you’ve done, you’ve done to yourself. Every happy and sad moment ever experienced by any human was, or will be, experienced by you.”

Thanks to Nataliya, I’ve read my first Andy Weir!Remarkably chewy for such a tiny bite, this is a maybe pleasant, maybe disturbing read. It may not change your life, but it’ll probably occupy your thoughts for longer than it takes to consume it! A fun offering about the meaning of life, this is worth a nibble. There’s a link up in the book description!
(Spoilers)A cute short story (a 5-minute read) by the author of The Martian. You can read it for free on the web at http://www.galactanet.com/oneoff/thee...A man dies in a car crash, has a discussion with God, and learns that he will be reincarnated. I think of Yukio Mishima’s tetralogy, The Sea of Fertility, which is based on the premise of reincarnation. So the value of this story is in making you think about this possibility. And if so, is that good news? The good news is you’re going to come...
Egg, a short story about the universe.Very short, and very powerful, packs a lot into a small package.Like an egg.Weir continues to impress. Same guy who wrote The Martian, yep that's him.I could not help thinking of the 1991 Albert Brooks film, Defending Your Life.This won't take 15 minutes to read, enjoy.
For this review and others please visit www.readrantrockandroll.comSpoiler...The Egg is a short story by Andy Weir which looks at life as a continuous loop. I found this short story to be quite boring. I found it interesting that in truth this isn't what the author believes at all, it's just a story he thought up. It's free so why not try it? http://www.galactanet.com/oneoff/thee...I ♡ The Martian, but this was just okay for me...3***
