Looking for new books to read as I am preparing to head out on a much needed vacation and want to dig into some good reading. Can be fiction or nonfiction, just so long as it hooked you and made you want to keep reading and reading until the end.
Not sure if your into light novels, recently I’ve been addicted to Acendence of A Bookworm.
Every time I buy the new Alex Delaware novel written by Jonathan Kellerman I read it straight through in one seating. I own the entire collection in hardback.
I feel like I have read quite a few books that I felt that way about, but it’s always hard to bring them to mind when someone asks. That said, the first few that popped into my head:
- Cradle (series)
- Wool (series)
- The Martian (Audio book is especially well narrated!)
- Murderbot Diaries (series)
- The Bobiverse (series)
The Bobiverse (series)
4th book was such a disappointment.
Overall message too, somehow went from “we are the avantgarde of transhumanism and the universe is our playground” straight up to something like “i wish 50’s back”. Every single Bob turned to either flat meme or boomer.
Very recently, Mrs March by Virginia Feito. I was just gripped, I finished it in a day. It was compulsive, I just had to know what the main character was going to do next and how it was all going to unravel.
The expanse. I’m on book 8 right now and it’s been going fast. The world building is so good. It makes you wish you were there with them. If you’re into hard scifi, then you’ll love this series
I tried watching the TV series and couldn’t get into it. I finally tried the first book and it is so much better.
Wait til you get further in. Things just keep building and it gets even better. The books I mean. I liked season one of the tv show and that was it. But the books. Only one book out of the series so far has been a struggle. The rest I’ve blinked and finished because of how good they were.
