I was expecting like a top 5 of _new_ books as voted on by a bunch of booktubers. Getting a list of 20 books (some of which are very much _not_ new) from 20 creators (many of whom I've not seen before) was a very pleasant surprise. I've been in a bit of a reading slump lately, but I think I need to look into a bunch of these. Also, wow, two recommendations for _A Song for Arbonne_ is even more unexpected. It's one of my favorites from GG Kay.

I had a pretty cool high school English teacher (if you think nerdy stuff is cool) and she had me read Hyperion alongside The Canterbury Tales and write a comparison between the two (for extra credit) I attribute my love for sff books to her RIP Ms. Albert. My favorite book so far is actually a scifi novella, Calypso by Oliver K Langmead. A space colonization story about giving humanity a fresh start
