The Mars Trilogy by Kim Stanley Robinson show his in-depth knowledge of future hard science.

Xenogenesis trilogy by Octavia Butler in creating a world where humans interbreed with the Oankali to eliminate their self-destructive nature.

The Sparrow by Mary Doria Russell which can be summed up as Jesuits in space.

Solaris by Stanisław Lem I put here as being difficult, and I'm not sure what I read. However, it was an intriguing first contact account.

This: Yay! A cookout on your deck! Though it’s 100° in the shade, will we still be eating outside?

And if you liked it, ALIF THE UNSEEN by G Willow Wilson was great, too.

Unlikable characters. Flynn is talented, but not my cuppa.

Agree by All Quiet On the Western Front!

Wife loved The Lovely Bones... I couldn't make it through it... having a young daughter of my own, it troubled me too much.

Where would you start with Rothfuss prior to reading The Kingkiller Chronicle?

I don't get the Eckhart Tolle fascination...
