I’m sure the Will Smith effect played a role, lol

I Am Legend. The book is dark, brooding, heavy, and psychological. The movie really Hollywood’d it up, completely changing the entire point of the ending.

Great write-up! I also found myself rooting for Lewellyn, but probably for less sophisticated reasons, lol. He is the protagonist, and my brain always seems to honor that construct, especially when it’s a character vs. another character situation. However, your post has made me reflect on his overall likeability.

I finished Till We Have Faces yesterday morning. It’s amazing; I only put it down two times!

Whalefall sounds nuts! I’m going to throw that on my TBR list. I hope you get at least one of these!
