After seeing it on the list in this thread, I decided to read Annihilation, and I just finished it. As others said it’s weird (I like weird, so it’s one of the reasons I wanted to read it). The writing style really reminded me of H.P. Lovecraft, which is to say it’s a bit stilted. I’m glad I read it - it’s an interesting world and the story is told in an interesting way - but it’s not a book I’ll recommend to a lot of my friends. Some of them, maybe.

Have any of you read it? What did you think?

    I’m getting to be pretty much a hermit, and didn’t realize there’s a movie of it until someone mentioned it in that other thread. Didn’t sound like a must-see.

    I might read the next in the series, but it’s way down on the list.
