[BREAK GLASS IN CASE OF SOCIETAL COLLAPSE]

Dystopia-core library books you inhaled in middle school on the bus so you could talk about them during lunch period.

a list of sci-fi books containing aliens

the staples of the book community on youtube in the early to mid 2010s.

Books that were adapted into movies (not tv shows). Let's make this list as long as possible!

(going to only add the first book in a series)

Based on my favorite podcast Rereading the Revolution. The hosts reread and recap popular 2000s-2010s novels from Divergent to Looking for Alaska.

The list is in order of oldest episodes to most recent. I will try and update when new episodes drop.

So take a walk down memory lane with these nostalgic picks, or find something new that sparks your inner teenager! Please give the podcast a listen, I think they’re a great bookish podcast to support

A collection of alien invasion sci-fi.

If you're someone like me, who doesn't love reading Adult books, these are a list of my favourites, both popular and not, for you to enjoy!
