Looking for something(s) to read in the lead up to and recovery from major abdominal surgery.
For me, the comfiest reads are ones that make me go "huh, that was a weird little book". Rich, ambitious ideas, punchy exposition, unusual voices.
Examples I've enjoyed-
This is How You Lose the Time War
The Monster of Elendhaven
Any of the Murderbot series
Piranesi
Ring Shout
A Psalm for the Wild Built
… and probably some more that I can't think of rn. Would love to hear about some gems that have stuck with you or anything you think would scratch the itch. Truly genre agnostic. Thank you in advance for the distraction 🙏
