items I love a Sci-Fi novel filled with emotional backstories, apocalyptic scenery, and a dash of gore 😈 What's some of your favorite sci-fi books? 📚
Spacebugs!! As a Veteran, it's very difficult to find books that use the language and experiences of someone in the military. Luckily the author, J.P Valor, is an army veteran and shares his experiences in this sci-fi, futuristic drama. Fortress of t...
Fortress of the Fallen by J.P Valor
Atwood is no stranger to apocalyptic craziness. This novel, told from the point of view of “Snowman”, is probably one of my favorites. The less you know about the premise of this novel, the better! And I rarely say that. This is the first book in a t...
Oryx and Crake (MaddAddam Trilogy) by Atwood
I LOVE MRS. BUTLER!! Everything she touches turns to gold in my eyes. Her writing is so phenomenal and really ignites creativity in my own life. Literally pick any of her books and READ them!!
Fledgling by Octavia E. Butler
Ann Leckie is one of my new favorite authors! I can't wait to read more of her work, it is really beautiful. Better to just jump in with her work and enjoy the ride!
Translation State by Ann Leckie
Not to be confused with the movie The Mist from 2007. Loved this book! It's freaky & focused on changes in "womenkind" after an apocalypse. Can't wait until they make this one into a movie!
Into the Mist: A Novel by P.C. Cast
Do you love mystery? Do you love thrillers? Do you love women empowerment? This novel reminds me of a Russian doll, where there's different genres kind of rolled into one. This is book 1 of 2 in the Bannerless Saga.
Bannerless by Carrie Vaughn
Lester Del Rey was a force in the Sci-Fi realm in the last 30's-90's. Alot of his work if focused on how men want to change women and this novel doesn't stray far from that. In a futuristic world where men can build the “perfect” woman, their plan en...
Helen O’Loy by Lester Del Rey
This is a trilogy but the first book sets up the universe and characters. I love loveee this author and the characters in her books are so refreshing. If you like Dune or even Star Wars, this is a great series to step into.
Binti by Nnedi Okorafor
A light read that focuses on the conversations between the two main characters rather than the apocalyptic world around them. I enjoyed Claire's take on romance in a world where nothing else really exists.
Last Light by Claire Kent
An interesting twist on the classic tale of The Little Red Riding Hood! Pretty twisty and a great palate cleanser if you're trying to find new books to read.
The Girl in Red by Christina Henry
I have read this book several times since high school. No wonder it won a Pultizer Prize! It leaves the reader hanging about what would happen to each of us in a time where all of our comforts are stripped away. The story focuses on two main characte...
The Road by Cormac McCarthy
