Fellow bookworms, I am glad to announce that I am at the last book of Cosmere (Yumi and the Nightmare Painter). And then, I will have finished it all. So this is where I need your help. Recommend me some awesome Sci-fi and Fantasy books that you believe will blow away my mind, like the impact needs to be huge, cannot believe this happened type of stuff. Preferred genre are Sci-fi and Fantasy, but if you know some awesome book from other genre, don’t hold back, all suggestions are welcome.

Thank you in advance.

UPDATE: Piranesi is currently on lead and I am almost finished with Yumi, so that is the next on my list. But don’t let that stop the recommendations coming. Eventually all of us are going to run out of recommendations ;)

    Some of my favorites! Mostly Sci-fi, but there a bit of fantasy too! The starred items are my absolute favorites; listened to on repeat. Not the most obscure list, but I don’t care.

    The Expanse series is my favorite, but I want to highlight Dungeon Crawler Carl and Redshirts. Sci-fi tends to be serious and depressing, but these books are funny. I genuinely laugh out loud at Dungeon Crawler Carl.

    • Leviathan Wakes by James SA Corey*
    • Red Rising by Pierce Brown*
    • Old Man’s War by John Scalzi
    • Redshirts by John Scalzi
    • Hyperion by Dan Simmons
    • Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie*
    • The Midnight Library by Matt Haig*
    • Wool by Hugh Howey
    • Heretical Fishing by Haylock Jobson
    • Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinnimon, narrated by Jeff Hays (listen to the audio book. It’s good in its own, but the narrator goes above and beyond anything else I’ve ever heard)*
