Yep, I have a sci-fi list too. It's not as big as my fantasy list, but I think there are some gems in this group that I'll be getting into. This was a tougher list to create because I love science fiction books, but I haven't narrowed down what I like from science fiction books. [...]

34 Highly Anticipated Fantasy Books of 2021
