We waited three years for Severance’s second season, and somehow it’s already over. Hopefully the season 3 hiatus won’t be nearly as long, but I, for one, am already mourning my weekly dose of the Apple TV Plus series.
I loved knowing that every week, I’d never be able to predict what was coming, and that I’d be faced with provocative questions about the nature of identity, how to survive within arbitrary systems of control, the ways those in power test the limits of technology and what people can endure, and, of course, what the hell happens in the goat room. No other show does it quite like them!
So, if you’re like me and already thinking about ways to fill time until Severance returns, sure, there are plenty of things you can watch, but there are also plenty of things to read, too. With cryptic, corkscrewy mysteries, poignant and comical workplace satires, and a byzantine horror masterpiece, these six books will help capture some of that Severance magic.
