    Of books published this year, Adrian Tchaikovsky's Children of Memory takes it for me, but in fairness I've only read like 4-5 books that were published this year. Pushing it back a little bit, The Mountain in the Sea by Ray Nayler was published at the end of last year and is probably really close, if not my favorite read of the year (there are a few other contenders but they're somewhat older)

    This is the third or fourth best SF of the year list I've seen and I'm beginning to think I was reading in some kind of an alternate universe this year, hardly any of my favorite books are showing up on other people's lists. I did like Generation Ship, I've read the first books in the Essa Hansen and Ada Hoffman series and will be finishing those. And I think you've convinced me to check out Saint Elspeth. Thanks for all the good videos this year, and keep on reading.

    Totally agree you on Jinn-Bot. Easily one of my best books of the year. I've been following Basu for a while and this is my favorite of his so far.
    I was more lukewarm on Archive Undying. I appreciate what the author was doing, but something just didn't click for me. I saw a review that described it as messy and I kinda agree with that. Sometimes that works for me, sometimes it doesn't.

    • @TheShadesofOrange

    Looking through my 2023 reads, the only thing that was published in 2023 was “Leviathan Falls” (in paperback). Two much older favourites that I read this year were “Fluency” (Jennifer Foehner Wells) and “Slow Bullets” (Alastair Reynolds), and a somewhat more recent one was “The Luminous Dead” (Caitlin Starling). I am so disappointed at my 2023 new release SciFi reading now you make me aware of it 🫤
