Starting a book club

I can't keep count of how many people are blocking me on here. This time it was a guy who blocked me because I told him that I read PTSD in Vonnegut's first novel (1952) already. He told me to "Womansplain this to someone else". Does anyone else have a similar neat experience or a good insight to tell about a novel? :-)

I forget the novel, but the past year or two I've been collecting the science fiction novels published by Avalon Press back in the 1950s and 1960s and was a bit surprised to find one from the late 1950s that pretty much accurately forecasts global warming, rising seas levels, etc.

@ChipmunkErnie Like these?

@val70 What are those? They look almost like pulp magazines. (The Avalon books were hardcovers, some originals, some "classics" dating as far back at the 1910s and 1920s.)

@val70 1950s Robbie the Robot. :) I'm thinking more 1920's AMAZING STORIES, etc.

@ChipmunkErnie Oh alright. Now I see. Just wanted that. We didn't have them. Only cartoon issues and such. Even then
