I liked both the books for its nerdie 80's references and interesting thriller style. If looking for Sci-Fi reads here are a couple I liked this past year. The Gone World by Tom Sweterlitsch Wayward Pines (trilogy books) by Blake Crouch (mini TV series but not as good as books) Dark Matter by Blake Crouch (Apple TV series) Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir (movie coming out soon) ** Edited by DallasHokie98 at 11/30/2025, 9:24:16 AM ** Edited by DallasHokie98 at 11/30/2025, 9:24:38 AM
