a sci-fi rec for sci-fi haters
Delightful, painful, funny, absurd, and at times frustrating but altogether well written and deeply original. I loved how it explored the intersection of technology and disability, particularly those ableist narratives that portray technology as an inherent threat to humanity — essentially arguing

sci fi that will take you on a JOURNEY
these trans science fiction books have whirlwinds for plots. with multiple storylines that hop across planets, both of them are creative, smart, and captivating. the first has some of the most breathtaking descriptions of music i’ve ever read, and the second is such a rich drama that i coudn’t l

A stack of books, including "LEECH" by Hiron Ennes, under the title "PARASITIC HORROR it seeps in," illustrating the theme of internal invasion in horror literature.
A gloved hand holds the book "LEECH" by Hiron Ennes, featuring a bottle with roots on its cover. The text describes a replacement doctor in a frozen estate where bodies are no longer human territory.
A gloved hand holds "PARASITE" by Darcy Coates, featuring a dark, spherical cover. The accompanying text describes an unseen parasite on space stations copying identity, highlighting themes of replacement and loss of autonomy.
🧪SCI-FI + PARASITIC HORROR TROPES
🔬Sci-fi horror and parasitic horror overlap, but they don’t feel the same to me. 🔬SCI-FI HORROR is usually about the unknown — aliens, experiments, or something we don’t fully understand yet. 🔬The fear comes from not knowing what it is or how it works. 👾PARASITIC HORROR takes it further.

sci fi books for the girlies!!
I just finished Red Rising, which is what inspired me to make this list!! Red Rising and Dark Matter are both very dude-bro, if you catch my drift, so be prepared for a lotttt of testosterone 🤪 that being said, Red Rising was very fun and familiar, à la The Hunger Games and Ender’s Game. And Dar
