Can you recommend a book for me please? - Lemmy.World

I’ve basically been ordered to pick up any fiction book and read, after a friend discovered I’ve not read anything but non-fiction for a decade. The ones I’ve enjoyed in the past have been short, fantastical or sci-fi (think Aldous Huxley, Ian McEwan), but crucially with amazing first person descriptive prose - the kind where you’re immersed in the writing so much you’re almost there with the character. I liked sci-fi as the world’s constraints weren’t always predictable. Hope that makes sense. Any recommendations?

If you like Andy Weirs novels, Tchaikowskis books are worth a try. I.e.:

Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky

I second Children of Time!
