xSubs Reading Room discussion

Our poll has concluded and Genre Fiction: Sci-Fi, Horror, and Mystery is our winner! Use this discussion board to throw out ideas for books to read. We'll make a new poll with the suggested titles and put it up this week to vote on.

Just throwing out a couple from my To Read list 🙂

The One - John Marrs
The Outsider - Stephen King

Because I just started it (so maybe this is cheating) I'll suggest:

The Three-Body Problem - Cixin Liu

Will also throw out another Sci-Fi on my To Read list:

Project Hail Mary - Andy Weir

I’ve had The Three Body Problem recommended to me as well.
Here’s one that sounds interesting to me!

Dawn by Octavia E. Butler

The first novel in the Xenogenesis series, Dawn, introduces us to Lilith, a woman whose son and husband died in the fires that destroyed Earth. She is one of the few humans who were rescued at the last minute by the Oankali, an alien race that survives by genetically merging with other civilizations. They've kept the Earthlings alive, in a deep sleep, for centuries, but now they want Lilith to help bring their ship back to a now-inhabitable Earth so they can merge their two races. But some of the humans aren't happy about this deal, even if it means the destruction of their own race. Lilith will have to decide who to side with, especially when all of humanity is at stake.

I'm 100% down for the Three Body Problem, I've been meaning to read it for ages!

Another I'd recommend is Dune. The movie comes out in October, I believe!

this is legion btw

Does Fahrenheit 451 fit the genre? That's one I'd like to read with a group.

definitely! (I've taught that text before which could make me a bit annoying in discussions)
