I like SciFi and fantasy. Currently reading Anthony Ryan’s The Draconis Memoria trilogy. Not sure I like that the dragons are the bad guys …

CJ Cherryh is always reliable …

Also like murder mysteries …

I love dragons. I can attest to them not being bad, just a little scary looking and acting.

Fantasy/science fiction. The biggest issue with those genres is that the good ones are very hard to find.

Fantasy/science fiction

Did you ever read Glass Books of the Dream Eaters? That’s a pretty suspenseful and brilliant example of modern fantasy sci-fi.

(At least, I thought so.)

None of the above. I like things about the exploration of consciousness, and how that applies to current discoveries in physics:

The Reality of ESP: A Physicist’s Proof of Psychic Abilities

Russell Targ

The Reality of ESP: A Physicist’s Proof of Psychic Abilities

I like books like that ^^^

Thank you. I’ll take all the recommendations I can get. I’ve been hungry for a good book for a while.

I don’t find self-help books useful at all but I’ve read Irwin Yalom’s “Staring at the sun” recently. My therapist suggested it and I thought, “yeah, whatever, what I need is more useless advice that doesn’t apply to me”. But it’s more of an in-depth view of confronting one’s mortality and overall fear of death. A very balanced and honest one, from a clinical, historical and philosophical point of view. I liked it a lot.

It turns out, he writes fiction as well so I’ll be definitely picking up one of those.
