@cmcc_lives: I’m trying to explore sci-fi and fantasy more. I’ve never been a huge fan of these genres, as I’ve usually gravitated toward theory-fiction within the speculative fiction space. These books seem to stand out from the crowd and I will be reading them this year. #books #speculativefiction #scifi #fantasy
Book of the New Sun is life changing. And yes. It will require more than one read. But it’s incredibly enjoyable on the first read too. Just go along with it and embrace the weird.

Blindsight has some good ideas, but it was so badly written I just didn't enjoy it.

I think you’d really like a podcast called Shelved by Genre. They covered book of the new sun in depth. They also did earthsea, and now they’re starting the William Gibson sprawl trilogy

Watts is excellent. Pretty sure that Sebald doesn’t have a speculative element

Le Guin fits so much story into so few pages it's like a magic trick

The vampires were always the coolest thing in blindsight for me, such an interesting pragmatic take on them

W.G. Sebald is a marvel. A truly great writer with amazing range. Highly recommend Austerlitz if you're into literary nonfiction.
