My kiddo and I are having a fruit and vegetable challenge. Each month we’ll seek out a fruit or vegetable we’ve never tried and taste it. My BFF is trying to walk all the greenways in our county (that is county not country, low stakes! Attainabl!). How about you?

    I’d recommend getting into Asimov’s Foundation series. I, Robot is kind of a meh book from him, Imo (I’ve read all his fiction work)

    Also take a look at Michael Crichton (Jurassic Park) and Arthur C. Clarke (2001: A Space Odyssey).

    I’d also recommend Heinlein, but his books do get pretty “pervy misogynistic old man harem fantasies” in his later years.

      Great recommendations. I want to read the foundation series, I’m enjoying the show, but the wait time on Libby is really long. Michael Crichton is one of my favorite authors. I do need to read some of Clarke’s books but it almost suffers from “classical” must read avoidance I have lol
