It's in my queue. Really looking forward to it. Heard lots of good things.
No I haven't, but it looks good. I have read The Wayward Pines Trilogy and Dark Matter, both by Crouch. I liked the Pines. Dark Matter was okay.
Thanks for the tip.
I like time travel, if that's a trope. I'm always looking for a new take on it as many different stories using it have already been told.
Watched all the Expanse series and started reading the Expanse books. I'm now on book 4 (Cibola Burn). When I watched the series, I really could figure out or understand what was going on. I just kept watching due to the charismatic enthusiasm of the fans online. I finished the TV series but still didn't quite "get it" and still felt lost. But now that I'm reading the books, I now understand what's happening and am enjoying it.
Understood. I like seeing the movie or series after reading the book, for some reason.
I understand and agree regarding a stale take on an existing trope. It is hard to find a new take on a concept, but just as you, that is exactly what I'm looking for too.
I understand, thank you for your input,
Of course if you enjoy it, the time is not wasted. Worthy to me, means I enjoy it. I'm sent dozens of book recommendations each week from various sources in which I subscribe. I have to weed them out because I certainly don't have time to read each one. The longer my queue becomes, the stricter my criteria becomes. I read almost every night for hours before bed, so not sure why you think I spend very little time enjoying a book. What an odd thing to say.
That is interesting and a good way to do it. What about authors you haven't heard of? How do you filter those?
What's the threshold? Can you articulate it, or is it more of a feeling to match your mood, or something like that?
Mushrooms.
