Station Eleven

> I was introduced to sci-fi last year and pretty much stuck to it throughout 2018. If you're looking for additional science fiction suggestions: 1. American War by Omar El Akkad 2. Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel 3. Artemis by Andy Weir 4. Daemon by Daniel Suarez 5. Old Man's War by John Scalzi 6. Dark Matter by Blake Crouch 7. Red Rising series by Pierce Brown

The Ted Chiang anthology is sooo good. Every story's premise was so unique - it blows my mind that one person can come up with so many out there ideas. I know OP wasn't looking for dystopias, but if you like Parable of the Sower, I recently read two excellent new scifi/dystopia books: Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel, and American War by Omar El Akkad. American War was really cool - it's by a journalist who covered military trials at Guantanamo Bay and the Arab Spring, who transposes the stories/atrocities he witnessed as a reporter onto the future US.

Top books that I read this past year: - Hillbilly Elegy By JD Vance - Golden Son by Pierce Brown (second book in a trilogy) liked the whole trilogy - Rosie Project/Rosie Effect by Graeme Simsion - Graceling by Kristin Cashore - Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel
