I went into this wanting a bit of a palette cleanse after a lot of heavy sci-fi. It’s exceeded my expectations in so many ways. It starts as a “bachelorette-style dating show for the heir to the Galactic Empire” but evolves to explore some more classic sci-fi themes.
The next book looks like it’s slated to come out in 2027 and I’m excited to see how the characters continue to develop
So I’ve loved fantasy books since I was a little kid, it’s always been my main genre.
But lately, I feel like my attention span is just not what it used to be and it’s affecting my reading. I used to be able to hold these complexly built worlds in my head. In the last few years, I feel like I sometimes struggle to keep all the characters, magic systems, locations, etc straight in my brain. It takes me out of the reading flow to have to think “wait who is that again”.
Maybe it’s the rise of social media that has just shot my attention span so thoroughly? But I really love the escapism of curling up with a good book. And I want to be able to recapture that feeling when I have time to read.
Does anyone else struggle with this at all?
