Ooof. Everyone in our socialist sci-fi book club picked different books and I have to be the tie breaker tomorrow. Mastodonians, which would you choose:
• Pocket Full of Stars Like Grains of Sand - Samuel Delaney
• The Dispossessed - Ursula K. Le Guin
• Clay's Ark - Octavia Butler
(Anything else suggested doesn't count-- we have to pick between these 3.)

Michael Cornelius @emdeesee

@SuzanEraslan These all seem like great choices; which is the least already-read among the group?

(I lean toward The Dispossessed over Clay's Ark because As @susannah noted, Clay's Ark is last in a series. I haven't read Pocket Full of Stars, but it looks like fun, too. Good luck choosing.)

SuzanEraslan @SuzanEraslan

@emdeesee I think I'm the only one who has read any of them, and I've only read the Le Guin. I was told Clay's Ark can stand alone, but if you and @susannah think not, I'll strike it.

Michael Cornelius @emdeesee

@SuzanEraslan @susannah So it turns out the Le Guin is the most already-read. :grin:

Honestly, it's been a while since I read it, but I think Clay's Ark can stand alone.
