[Discussion] Second Place Book Club Selection - Annihilation by Jeff Vandermeer - eviltoast

Annihilation by Jeff Vandermeer

Annihilation is our second place selection for November. We decided to choose a second book for people who want to have a little more variety and want to do more than one book in a month. I am looking forward to the discussion on this one. I saw the movie when it came out but am really interested to experience the story in book form.

    I went into it hoping to capture the nostalgia of discovering and reading SCP when I first discovered them many years ago.

    Unfortunately, Even though the premise looked really cool I found myself bored after the first book and never read the rest of the series.

    Are the following books different? Is the film worth it?

      The movie is good, though I felt it missed a lot of things I found interesting in the book. (Don’t ask what exactly, it’s been a while.)

      If you were bored by the first book, don’t even bother with the others.
