My husband only likes books that are scifi either based in real science, or with fake science where the rules are consistent. I like most genres but scifi bores me, but my interest is peaked by fun or interesting characters. The 2 books we have most enjoyed together are Dune and Project Hail Mary.
I'm looking for a book with a scifi backdrop, but is also about the characters reacting to that scifi thing. Something like the movies Her or Ex Machina, where they live in a scifi world, but the story more about the main character, and how they deal with that scifi concept. So something like a mystery, thriller, romance, horror etc that has interesting characters, that live in a scifi world. Also, my husband gets very annoyed with handwaved or illogical scifi concepts, so the science has to make sense.
