Not an exhaustive list but these were the books I felt moved to record[0] reading:

The Murderbot Diaries by Martha Welles --> kind of trashy but fun and enjoyable.

Priest by Matthew Colville --> terrible, don't read this.

It's Behind You - The Making of a Game by Bob Pape --> Interesting if you grew up in the 8bit era

Jade City by Fonda Lee --> Basically Jedi street gangs, pretty great

Spin by Robert Charles Wilson --> Near future hard sci-fi with a Big Dumb Object, excellent

Making the Monster by Kathryn Harkup --> Non-fiction about Mary Shelley, disappointing

Annihilation by Jeff VanderMeer --> Effectively creepy and well written

The Fifth Season by N. K. Jemisin --> Absolutely fantastic, highly recommended
