Re: "Anyone have any favorite recent sci-fi reads? Here are some..."
Something fun I read recently that comes in bite-sized installments is Robert Sheckley's AAA Ace series. I really liked it.

The two of my favorite sci-fi book series I read were The Foundation Series by Isaac Asimov and the Rama series by Arthur C Clarke.

I liked the Silo series. I'm glad it was turned into a tv series. Also Sand by the same author, Hugh Howey I believe.
The Expanse and The Martian (read before the movie).
Ancillary Justice. I couldn't get into the second one in the series but finished it nonetheless.

@gritty I've heard the Sand series is good as well. Last week I picked up a bag of books for 50 cents at my local library and it had Hugh Howey's Beacon 23 in it. So I'm reading that now. :)

Anyone have any favorite recent sci-fi reads? Here are some of mine (though some of these were read last year, so not super recent): All of the murderbot books by Martha Wells To Be Taught, If Fortunate by Becky Chambers Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir Ammonite by Nicola Griffith Stringers by Chris Panatier The Mountain In the Sea by Ray Naylor Galactic Pot-Healer by Philip K Dick A mix of hard sci-fi, enviro/eco sci-fi, and just good fun with aliens and space. I'd love to get some good...
