#introduction 3! I AM ALSO EXTREMELY INTO.... #books and #reading. I particularly enjoy #SciFi and #HardScienceFiction / #HardSciFi - generally anything by #JoeHaldeman #JohnScalzi #DennisETaylor #MarkoKloos #PoulAnderson #AndyWeir #AdrianTchaikovsky. I would absolutely LOVE it if people suggested books to me as I'm not very good at finding ones I like. The #Bobiverse series was probably my most favourite recent read. Again I welcome interaction about this.
I'm also Extremely Into #ScienceFiction #SciFi #HardSciFi #HardScienceFiction #Books
During lockdown I rediscovered my love of reading - stumbling across #JohnScalzi #OldMansWar, which I loved and reminded a bit me of the #JoeHaldeman #ForeverWar series. Which led me to the #Bobiverse books by #DennisETaylor which I LOVED.
I also very much like....

Genuinely looking for more suggestions!
I really enjoyed this short story by #AndyWeir called The Egg.

Its approximately a 4 minute read and a touching reminder of how we engage the world around us.
(I saw this somewhere on my Mastodon timeline but the search function failed to find a reference to it.)
Books I read in 2022 [part 5 of 5]

So I have read a total of 38 fictional novels this year, and I don't think I'll be able to finish another before the year ends.

Hi all! I'm looking for #recommendations for #scifiBooks that I can listen to with my 13 yro niece on a long road trip. I'm looking for books advanced enough to interest adult readers but are tame-ish in the swearing and sex department so I don't upset her mother too badly.
She's listened to #ProjectHailMary about 15 times according to her father, so I know #andyWeir will meet with approval.
Thinking I might try #TheMurderbotDiaries. Any others to consider?
Boosts welcome
Ok, I’ve basically cleared my to be read pile (nearly, some are long term residents).
What should I read next?
Fancy a sci-fi next as I’ve been on a magical kick.
Authors I’ve enjoyed recently are #AndyWeir #JamesBlish #BeckyChambers #AdrianTchaikovsky #AnnLeckie but open to new suggestions.
