I personally don't understand! The pandemic has not made me even a _little_ more inclined to read anything dark. In fact, the opposite. I find myself doing marathon re-reads of old favourites and series. For example, I'm now working my way back through the Honor Harrington books. Mostly as audio, but sometimes switching over to my Kindle. But I also started a new series, The Murderbot Diaries, by Martha Wells. I'm not sure quite why they're working for me, but they are. However, they're seriously overpriced at Amazon (>$10 for a novella of 150 pages???), so I'm having to be patient at the Library.
