Also appreciate you double checking me. These are from a list I made a while back based on video games / mmropg / VR etc. so I’m not familiar with all the vibes going on with them but at least a good amount should align I hope! I’ve scanned the synopsis for most.

You decided to add Enders Game? Hope you didn’t feel pressure to!! :)

Do want you want it’s your list. :) In my mind, I include everything, and don’t avoid reading an author that’s problematic, because people are going to be problematic all over and we sometimes as a culture take time to recognize and learn what’s problematic too, which is where we get outdated aspects in media…and we can be conscious about how we support the author or not, can advocate and communicate these issues, and even read books and talk about the issues they contain. Theres also going to be many people that are problematic but we may not know yet or ever. Obviously there’s a lot more too it than this. My comment will remain too if you find making a list of behind the scenes comments to be more work than you’d like but I think that’s a good idea too if you’re uncomfortable with things on a list. I love making supplemental comments. I’ve paired movies with my book lists before this way. Appreciate the explanation though! Enders game has been an impactful book for me, for several reasons —so it’s hard not to keep reccomending it!

No rush of course. I also have a few more I'm going to look at first & then rec. So I'll be right back.
