I started reading last year, mostly productivity stuff, but now I’m really looking to jump into fiction to unwind after a long week of uni, studying, and work. I need something to help me relax during the weekends without feeling like I’m working.
I’d love some recommendations for books that are short enough to finish in a day but still hit hard and are totally worth it. No specific genre preferences right now. I’m open to whatever. Looking forward to seeing what you guys suggest. Thank you very much in advance.
I’m waist deep in The Dresden Files right now (just started Turn Coat, book 11 of like 20 and counting) and it very quickly became one of my favorite series I’ve ever read. Jim Butcher has woven a web of a story where every little detail is a foreshadow that often won’t pay off until two books later, it’s incredible.
Prior to this I read The Expanse and that one also comes highly recommended. It’s one of the most believable space operas I’ve ever read. I also hear the TV show is good, no idea, never watched it.
The Expanse TV show is superb. I’m halfway through the books now, and in some ways the TV show is much better, in other ways the books are better.
There’s enough subtlety and complexity that I’ve watched the entire series twice, and I wouldn’t be averse to watching it again.
