Currently reading “The Kaiju Preservation Society” by John Scalzi. Lightweight, humorous sci-fi. Just recently finished “The Gentleman of Moscow” by Amor Towles, which is lovely storytelling if you enjoy character building. KPS is definitely a much different feel.
Depending on what you like to read, I would recommend both - but for different reasons.
I loved Scalzi’s Old man war series. Good entertaining sci fi, with some interesting questions to ponder under the stories.
I just finished KPS and loved it! It was fun in a “this entire thing is fucking ridiculous” sort of way that Scalzi (and the book itself) fully acknowledges.
“I lift things” started infiltrating my spoken phrases without me realizing it and I was like “wtf‽” when I realized.
I really enjoyed Scalzi’s Interdependency series. Definitely light compared to some (and there were arcs/characters I would have liked to see develop a bit more), but it’s a decent enough ride.
