Rec | THE VANISHED BIRDS BY SIMON JIMENEZ

🐦

Sci-Fi book I picked up on a whim at the library nearly 2 years ago that I still think about at least weekly! A blurb on the back said it was "the best of what science fiction should be" and I was like "wow, that's bold" but it was true! It's on par with This Is How You Lose The Time War, but longer and more traditionally narrated (but still interesting!)

This is how you lose the time war

This is how you lose the time war is an amazing read! It‘s main driver is romance and is set in a si-fi world, and I loved it despite being not the biggest fan of either! It’s a short read and so worth it and is my go to book recommendation for anyone. It’s beautiful, gripping and just so well done, cannot recommend it enough!

This is how you lose the time war

It’s an epistolary love story, and very good sci fi. More literary than hard science. By amal el-mohtar and max gladstone

David Quammen – The Flight of the Iguana: A sidelong view of science and nature

I don't remember if I've read the whole thing so this is not an endorsement of it. Anyway it's pretty interesting. It's about biology but written for an interested, but not necessarily trailed, audience.
