I didn't nominate, I just read and voted. I couldn't choose between The Dark Between The Stars and The Goblin Emperor. I read each straight through. Both engaging in totally different ways. Skin Game was a problem because of being part of a series I hadn't read. I don't enjoy Ann Leckie's style or themes. The Three-Body Problem I hated. Couldn't even get 1/4 of the way through. I find it hard to believe it would have a wide audience to love it.
Perhaps is this is why I am reading more Mystery these days. I used to read mostly SciFi and now don't enjoy it so much. Went to Romance and now after the success of 50 Shades so many romances have needless, gratuitous sex scenes that I find myself flicking through whole chunks.
