Book Log 2023 #21: The Kaiju Preservation Society by John Scalzi
Jamie is working as a food delivery driver in New York during the Covid-19 pandemic, hating the job but making ends meet (barely). An opportunity arises when a customer (and acquaintance) tells Jamie that the "animal rights organization" that he works for needs someone last minute for field visit. Jamie jumps at the offer.
What Jamie doesn't know is that the "animal rights organization" isn't exactly the ASPCA. It's more like Jurassic Park meets Godzilla on an Earth in an alternate dimension.
As is often the case, Scalzi writes a book that is fast paced, highly entertaining, and likely to irritate hard core sci-fi/monster movie types. I liked it quite a bit, as did my oldest son, who is into Godzilla and read this for a high school summer reading project.
