I'm not sure when it was written, but I ran across this list of the best science fiction and fantasy books this century, and I resonated with the ones I've read, so I thought I'd see what others thought of it. Have you read many of them?

I liked All Systems Red fairly well. Pretty quick read, not just because it's a novella, but fun. Seveneves is great, and I loved American Gods. Windup Girl is really good. I'm not sure why I've never read Pattern Recognition; I've read a lot of Gibson and usually like his stuff a lot (but I hope someone wrestles the microphone away from him if he ever tries to do another audio book).

All Systems Red is great and so are the rest in the series.

Love the murderbot diaries.
