Hello all!
I’m a 27 year old male and I used to love reading books growing up during school but I honestly haven’t touched a book in damn near 10 years. With that being said I’d love to get back into it and would appreciate some recommendations! My favorite type of books were the Percy Jackson books (yes I know very basic lol) so genre I’d have to say id lean more action/adventure based!

I got you, check out Matthew Rielly’s Jack West Jr series. And chaos by Tom o”niel if you care about the Manson case at all.
Humorous Sci-fi By John Scalzi:
**The Kaiju Preservation Society** is … adventuresome and fun.
**Redshirts** is a satirical look at space operas from the point-of-view of ‘expendable’ crew.
**Starter Villain** is the most entertaining book I’ve read recently. It’s a spoof of the early James Bond movies. A substitute teacher inherits his estranged uncle’s villainy which comes complete with a secret volcanic lair.
Still fun but a different type of humor is Martha Wells’ *Murderbot Diaries* series of sci-fi novellas. They follow an ex-military cyborg who hires out as security to humans at the edge of the galaxy, protecting them from the dumb things they insist on doing. Action-packed, fast-moving, with minimal world-building, I considered each of them a treat to read. The first one is **All Systems Red**.
In order from most to least action:
*Murderbot Diaries* (but a heavier read than Scalzi’s)
*The Kaiju Preservation Society*
*Redshirts*
*Starter Villain*
