When done well it pulls me in because science fiction isn’t my go-to category to read from. However, these were all fantastic and of course, of course, of course, I have to highlight Saga. If you ever want to talk about Saga with me, I’m always available. I own them all AND I have reread them several times over.

1. The Martian by Andy Weir: Survival in space alone.
2. Crownchasers by Rebecca Coffindaffer: A reluctant rise to power and a space race.
3. The Loneliest Girl in the Universe by Lauren James: Atmospherically intense.
4. Space Trash by Jenn Woodall: Will they ever get back to earth after it’s been trashed.
5. Crash From Outer Space: Unraveling the Mystery of Flying Saucers, Alien Beings, and Roswell by Candace Fleming: A well-presented middle grade about all things outer space from a prolific nonfiction writer.
6. Saga series by Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples: I cannot say anything that comes close to doing this series justice (even though it’s not even finished yet), so I won’t. All I can say is, it’s a must-read and certainly adult content.
