Some fiction I've read and enjoyed recently (eg. in the past few years):
- The Space Between Worlds by Micaiah Johnson
- The Martian, Artemis, and Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir
- The Sympathizer (and it's sequel, The Committed) by Viet Thanh Nguyen
- The Inheritance Trilogy by N.K. Jemisin
- The Broken Earth Trilogy by N.K. Jemisin
- The Binti Trilogy by Nnedi Okorafor
- The Remembrance of Earth's Past trilogy by Cixin Liu
- Supernova Era by Cixin Liu
- The Aftermath Trilogy by Chuck Wendig
- Invasive by Chuck Wendig
- The new Thrawn trilogy (Thrawn, Thrawn: Alliances, Thrawn: Treason) by Timothy Zahn
- Queen's Shadow by E.K. Johnston
- Maul: Lockdown by Joe Schrieber
- Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter by Michael Reaves
- The Wrath of Maul by Ryder Windham
- Cobalt Squadron by Elizabeth Wein
- Phasma by Delilah S. Dawson
- Rashomon by Ryunosuke Akutagawa
- In a Grove by Ryunosuke Akutagawa
I'm a huge scifi and fantasy fan, hence why the only books on this list that are not scifi or fantasy are the Viet Thanh Nguyen novels. Though I'm not sure I would characterize the short stories I read by Ryunosuke as fantasy exactly despite some of the more fantastical elements of In a Grove (I don't remember Rashomon well, so I should probably read it again sometime), but I also have difficulty classifying his writing. I've also read a lot of Star Wars novels. Like...a lot of them. This doesn't even list all the ones I've read recently.
I also tend to like reading books in a series and multiple books by the same author. And this is not an exhaustive list of everything I've read or even enjoyed in the last few years.
This list is to remind me that my memory is a liar when it says I don't read much anymore, haha. I still do dislike those times when I don't feel sufficiently motivated to read anything, but those times are certainly not all of the time.
