At Nohara66's request, scfi books "without space and physics!" (Or as close as can be). Some of these do feature spaceships in the background or as a step from point A to B, or set within galactic empires, or once colonised worlds, but involve no physics and don't focus on life/travel in space.

This isn’t just “weird girl lit,” it’s weird girl books with a MESSAGE. with something to say and doing it in a weird way!! No shame to the angry woman weird girl books but that ain’t what I’m talking about. I’m talking space, magical realism, weird kinks as metaphors. I’m talking new takes on the form, books that do things differently. If you know, you know. These are some of my favorite types of books and nearly everything on this list I’ve read and loved.

Calling all theatre lovers: As former theatre major, I often envision books as if they were carried out on the stage in my mind. Some books stand out to me more than others. This is a list of those that I think would work really well.

I would also love to see more genres on the stage (ie horror, sci-fi fantasy). The plays I have seen which dip into these other genres are so innovative. Example: the UK’s production of 1984.

This is specifically for stage plays and not movies!

Books I’ve given 5 stars!!
