Awesome. I’ll have to check those out. Where do you buy your audio books?

I use overdrive and hoopla with my library card and its free. 🙂

Otherwise, Google just announced that they’re offering ebooks now through Google books, and it’s roughly the same deal as Audible, minus the monthly fee. I know Amazon always offers to add the audio file if they have it when I buy ebooks as well.

The book is much better! And you’ll see a sarcastic Mark, but very very funny in the same time.

One series where I actually like the sequel (Wandering Star, I haven’t read the last two yet) better than the first book! So good!

if you like Young adult sci-fi books I can recommend the ILLUMINAE files by Amie Kaufman & Jay kristoff, the Starbound trilogy by Amie Kaufman & Meagan Spooner, Defy the Stars by Claudia Gray and Shadow run by Adrianne Strickland & Michael Miller. Those are my absolute favorites among sci-fi at the moment <3

Thank you everyone. Keep them coming. I’m loving all these suggestions. I’m going to just have a sci fi reading year this year lol

there are several new Young adult sci-fi being released this years as well! Amie Kaufman & Meagan Spooner just released the first book in a new sci-fi series called Unearthed.

Then there’s all of these other young adult sci-fi books still coming our way this year as well:
– honor among thieves by rachel caine
– heart of iron by ashley poston
– obsidio by jay kristoff & amie kaufman (book 3 in the illuminae files)
– the final six by alexandra monir
– defy the worlds by claudia gray (sequel to defy the stars)

And I’m sure there are a lot more sci-fi releases this year but I mainly focus on the YA books. I do plan on reading Artemis soon, because I’m very excited about reading an adult sci-fi book as well.

Aurora by Kim Stanley Robinson. Any of his “Planet” books: Red Planet, Blue Planet, etc. Seveneves by Neal Stephenson. Both of Andy Weir’s books, The Martian and Artemis. I am a huge fan of hard science fiction, so I could list a dozen more.

Most of the suggestions I’m seeing are not hard sci-fi. I think it’s an acquired taste, haha.

A Fire Upon the Deep and A Deepness in the Sky by Vernor Vinge, some absolutely stunning space opera. while they’re loosely related, they don’t have to be read in order.
