Sci-Fi Month | TBR


Sci-Fi Month is hosted by Rinn @ Rinn Reads, and this year I'm participating!

You can find my introduction post here. Today, though, I thought I'd talk about some books I'd like to cross off my TBR this month. I own a lot of unread sci-fi books but there's no way I'm going to get to all of them, so these are just the ones I'm particularly hopeful that I'll get to!


Bitch Planet, Vol.1: Extraordinary Machine by Kelly Sue DeConnick and Valentino De Landro: The first volume in what looks like a very fun graphic novel series. I'm basically hoping that this is going to the sci-fi equivalent of Rat Queens.

Copperhead, Vol.2 by Jay Faerber, Scott Godlewski and Ron Riley: I enjoyed the first volume of Copperhead (reviewed here!) so I'm looking forward to reading the second!

The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet by Becky Chambers: I received an eARC of this debut from NetGalley and I've heard nothing but amazing things about it, including a rave review from my friend Natalie @ A Sea Change. It's being likened to Firefly, so I'm excited to read it!

Winter by Marissa Meyer: It's finally November, which means my most anticipated release of 2015 is nearly here at last! I'm so excited for this book I may vomit.

Blackout by Mira Grant: I really to stop putting finishing this trilogy off. I just don't want it to end, and I'm worried it's going to break my heart even more than the previous two books already have. Sci-Fi Month is the perfect time to finally finish this trilogy off!

The Book of Strange New Things by Michel Faber: I've already started this one, I'm about a quarter of the way through it, and I'm really enjoying it so far, but then I put it aside so I could read some spooky books throughout October. I'm hoping to finish this one soon.

What are you reading this month?

  2. Some of these I've not heard of, but the ones I have I REALLY want to read :D Although in the case of Blackout and Winter, I need to read the preceeding books...

    1. I honestly can't recommend Newsflesh and The Lunar Chronicles enough - they're both fantastic!

  3. The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet does look good. And I've heard good things about Bitch Planet too...
