There’s a lot of new books I read with lots of stream of consciousness or tell instead of show or going to a place and talking to a person to get information for like 5 chapters. I feel like some older books had a better variety of action, pacing and dialogue.

Imaginative, exciting, well researched. Sci-fi, fantasy, thriller. My favorite books are Altered Carbon, Red Dwarf, The Stars Are Legion, the Paradox series, The Fifth Wave, Hunger Games, anything by Michael Crichton or Octavia Butler.

Thank you. What do you recommend? Maybe I’m looking at the wrong stuff.

I’ve noticed this as well. Music, books and art in the last 10 years or so have just become kinda soulless because it’s all about making a lot of it and selling it for money.
