I love how passionately you talk about these books and it sounds like a great list. 😊

Its funny the difference on what Blake Crouch writes now to the past. I read a couple of his early murder mystery/horror books. Be wary of Tolkiens The Silmarillion. Normally I like info dumps in my novels, but it takes it to the extreme IMHO

Dark Matter is one of the best books I've ever read. I read it years ago and it's still on my mind as if I read it months ago.

The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue was so hard to get through, put me in such a reading slump. Am i the only one?

Oooh... Recursion sounds really good!

Hmmm, interesting number one pick. When I do go for SF I usually go for the classic stuff but I guess I'll have to check that one out sometime.

I really wish people would be more transparent about how mediocre Of Blood and Fire is. It has some really great moments but does nothing new and almost feels too ambitious. Im always told the series gets better but that doesn’t explain the lack of honesty when it comes to how the first book is represented. Maybe it’s just me but the writing was so juvenile, I consistently felt the urge to send Cahill a Thesaurus. Also half of the dialogue throughout the novel felt so out of place and forced it was very difficult for me to get through the beginning of it. I plan on continuing the series but i need some time to trust the process. Maybe the third book really is as great as people say.

Also this series has a LOT of printing issues which may have contributed to my frustration
