I am sure they are trying to be sarcastic.

I prefer paper books, don’t care about the smell, but it’s just the tactical feel of paper book vs ebook.

Haven’t read anything by Dennis Lehane myself but have heard good thing about most of this novels.

What about some litRPG? They are generally not too deep and great to pass time.

Interesting! Thanks for the info.

How is The Classic of Tea? Don’t have enough interest in Tea to actually read that, but curious after checking it’s details.

Ah, will keep it for “some day” then. I loved the First Law Trilogy but don’t feel like reading anything that grim again.

I have only read the first book in Thursday Murder Club series, loved the book, but never got around to get the next books. Should do that soon.

How “grim” is it? Compared to his First Law Trilogy

In this age and time, I sometimes like my fiction to have the characters that are closer to white and black, instead of infinite shades of gray. Obvious good guy vs obvious bad guys, with the good guy winning in the end. At least something should be simple.

Haven’t read Tower of Babel, but it has been mentioned before, will check it out.

LitRPG is an interesting genre, it has some great books, but also lots of pretty low-quality books.

As a bit of cynic myself, Hope for Cynics by Jamil Zaki looks like something worth reading.

Towards Eternity also sounds pretty interesting.

lol, thanks for expanding your ability to recommend cosmic horror. I’ll refer to you again.

Hehe, have fun!

Ah okay. Thanks for the response.

What didn’t you like about Children of Time? I haven’t read it myself yet, but it’s one of community favourites.

Nice cyberpunk theme going on, which also explains why you are looking for more contemporary authors.

10 books to go! (then you will have only 80 or so left!)

Trust seems interesting. Will take a look.

The Good, The Bad, The Ugly, all are welcome here.
