I'm split between hard sci-fi and detective novels for the majority of what I read. The entire Isaac Asimov universe should be a mandatory read as it's easy to read and yet extremely deep.

The past few years I have been on a reading kick and have been either reading stuff I did/should have read in highschool or bingeing series I like.

I have listed all I have read the past few years here.

Favorite books - fun topic! I heard that your favorite book is probably one you wouldn’t recommend to people, so… here’s a small list of my top 10 (in no particular order) if someone wants to check them out! Feel free to post your own book lists! The weirder the better !! 🐛 • Kafka on the shore (Murakami) • Notes of a crocodile (Miaojin) • Our Share of Night (Enriquez) • 2666 (Bolaño) • Carcel de mujeres (Geel) • La mujer de sal (Gertner) • Little Eyes (Schweblin) • What I Loved (Hustvedt)...
