Began The Dark Forest by Liu Cixin before moving out to a new rent. With all the fuss with relocation I hadn't had time to sit down and continue it, but I look forward to do that asap. I really like Liu's style and how easy to read it is.
Thanks for this. I read everything I can find in those areas that looks reasonably coherent and it's hard to find more without a bunch of fake nonsense drowning it out a lot of the time.
After wrapping up book 6 of Murderbot Diaries I started in on A Long Way to a Small Angry Planet by Becky Chambers. I've heard the wayarers series was good, have access to the first book so I am checking it out. So far it's okay.
Oh well that's unfortunate. I like series because I like to stick to characters on long journeys, getting to know them and care for them. Only the first book is available on Kindle Unlimited so I guess I just won't bother reading past book 1.
(The one exception to this so far is Malazan, which has so many characters and so many times those bounce around from being in a books to disappearing for 3 books, only to resurface again later. Malazan is fantastic though, and totally worth it. Erikson managed to make me care deeply about characters that we only saw for half a book. It's ridiculous.)
I just finished the Witcher books yesterday and haven't started the next one yet, but it is already out and ready to go.
Next is The Croning by Laird Barron. He writes cosmic horror. I can't review it yet, but I've enjoyed the couple of his works that I've read in the past.
Currently reading Wool by Hugh Howey. It’s the book that Silo is based on so I was hoping to see how close it is to the show and also read farther than the show got to since season 1 just ended. It’s in the scifi dystopian genre. I would recommend it yes@[email protected]
