What a great list! I added several to my TBR. I bounce off most audiobooks, but I highly recommend The Past is Red in audio. The narrator gives Tetley so much heart — and her accent is fantastic.
-
The categories were such a good idea!
-
There's something about Catherynne M Valente's writing i just love. The Past is Red is a great example of that.
-
Thank you for these recommendations. I’m just starting to dip my toes into sci fi and the categories are super helpful!
-
Awesome vid! I recently loved Shards of Honor, Exhalation, and Children of Time, and can’t wait to dig into some more on here! I already have Semiosis, Infomocracy, and Too Like the Lightning ready to go!
-
Great video, with so many amazing recs! I totally agree with you on the typical beginner sci-fi recs thing. I always love how you recommend things by explaining various aspects certain readers may or may not like. I’ve read and enjoyed so many of these and I’m looking forward to reading even more! And you describing The Dandelion Dynasty as more sci-fi than fantasy definitely shot the series up higher in my TBR!

I love womb city. It manages to do so much in such a short book. It's incredible. Xe points out how it takes months for African people to obtain visa to travel within the continent while say USA citizen will obtain it in a matter of days no questions asked. It's also discusses the identity. How black people will chose black bodies even though they'd be treated better if people thought they were white.It's unabashedly the book TlotloTsamaase wanted to write.

Thank you for the recommendations 😁
-
Love this! Already finished (at 2x) and noted down A BUNCH of the recommendations. Thanks for the video
-
This was so fun to watchas someone who has watched you read so many of these (and read some of them on your recommendation). I need to read the Malka Older series and Light from Uncommon Stars still. Long LA story time but the ties to the donut shop (that you reference) is just so real, as someone who grew up thinking that Chinese food and donuts were just traditionally sold together, but knew nothing about why until an argument about donut capitals at work.
-
Loved the video, I've added several to my TBR. If you like Semiosis by Sue Burke you should check out the Dark Eden trilogy by Chris Beckett. A spaceship crash lands on a world with out a sun and the survivors propagate. Intergenerational conflict then ensues between those that want to wait for rescue from Earth and those who want to settle permanently.
-
Whew, that was a whirlwind of recommendations, my TBR is crying (but my heart is happy!!). I really need to get to Arkady Martine's works and Lois McMaster Bujold, you have sold me so hard!! And heck yes for Ted Chiang and Ken Liu, I want to reread those collections so badly!!
-
Daemon & Freedom by Daniel Suarez Finished the Vorkosigan Saga years ago. Have read each book multiple times.
-
Love the recs but I'd argue Children of Time has a very good plot lol! There's the plot of the spiders evolving and the plot of the humans looking for a new home, and the two plots meet a few times.
-
I´m so glad you mentioned Semiosis: I love that book but it's so underrated
-
Im a huge fan of Murderbot, You Sexy Thing is a queer romp through space Edit: i also loved The Library of Broken Things which is apparently a controversial opinion. There was something about it that just stuck with me and it was a bit experimental, very complex for sure
-
Children of Time was certainly a unique thought experiment. My brother and I read it together and we had an interesting discussion there...
-
A Memory Called Empire ❤ Dawn ❤ Simon Jimenez ❤
-
Science fiction is by far my fav genre so thanks so much for making this video!! You had a few I haven’t heard of so excited to pick them up - just bought Too Like The Lightning the other day on your rec, and that’ll be my next read 🫶
-
Great list! ❤ 🛸I know I am definitely in the minority because I follow almost exclusively for the sci-fi content so I must say that joining “the year of science-fiction” sounds great to me! 😅I wish I was more into fantasy but maybe one day… is it just me or does it seem like more men tend to read exclusively SF? 🤔 I’m a woman and it’s lonely here 😅
