Finished: Dissolution by Nicholas Binge 📚. This was an unexpectedly delightful science fiction novel, featuring time travel via immersion in perfect memories of the past and a conspiracy that turns out to be completely different from what it first appears.

Can we get someone to point out to him that people are yippy and afraid about all his other abuses of executive power too? Maybe he’ll just resign when he finds out?
