The Three Body Problem trilogy is great sci fi that feels blockbuster-y whilst still being interesting conceptually, without being terribly written or cheesy. They're making it in to a series I believe.

I'm currently reading Caliban's War, the second in the Expanse series. It's definitely pretty trashy but ticks the blockbuster, easy to blast through box. I'm about 100 pages in in a couple of days.

Fantasy wise, I read all of the Earthsea series by Ursula K Le Guin last year and absolutely loved them. Not without their problems but I really enjoyed them.

I thought I should have liked the Three Body Problem but found it hard work to read and all a bit clunky.

Oh really? I enjoyed it a lot. It's definitely a bit all over the place but I thought that worked quite well.

I also thought this. I blamed the translation*
