Book Recommendations
Hey everyone, A few weeks ago, I posted my list of fantasy book recommendations for you all. This week, I’m posting my sci-fi ones The Sci-fi books I always recommend [YA/Adult] Cinder by Marissa Meyer. The first in the Lunar Chronicles. It’s a sci-fi retelling of Cinderella, with cyborgs and mysterious diseases and a pretty awesome romance thrown in there for good measure. Cinder isn’t necessarily my favourite in the series, but I do think it’s a bloody good book, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone who likes a dose of fairytale added to their science fiction. Warcross by Marie Lu. This is the first in a duology about a…
