Compared to my crazy Thursday with the Paranormal Passion Panel and Chuck Palahniuk, Friday was much more tame. I didn’t make it to the fan fiction panel but I did go to the Science Fiction That Will Change Your Life panel (one of my favorites from last year) and it did not disappoint!!
Here were their recommendations (all links go to the book’s Goodreads page or movie’s/television show’s IMDb page):
Odds Against Tomorrow by Nathaniel Rich
The Best of All Possible Worlds by Karen Lords
Tenth of December by George Saunders
The Unwinding: An Inner History of the New America by George Packer
Hydrogen Sonata by Ian Banks
11/22/63 by Stephen King
Sleep of Reason
Scatter, Adapt, and Remember by Annalee Newitz (the moderator!)
Winter’s Tale by Mark Helprin
Let me tell you that the recommendations of this panel will NOT disappoint, I’ve added them all to my to-watch/to-read list.
I also bought and panelist had Austin Grossman sign a copy of You, I can’t wait to start it:
What science fiction has changed your life? Have you read or seen any of these titles?
