I'm currently very interested in SOLARPUNK, an offshoot of HOPEPUNK, that asks the questions, "What if the future was good, actually?" and "How do we heal our relationship with the earth & each other?"

Give me your recommendations, please. I need some hope.

Some examples of Solarpunk I've read & loved:

PLANETFALL by Emma Newman
WOMAN ON THE EDGE OF TIME by Marge Piercy
A PSALM FOR THE WILD-BUILT by Becky Chambers
A PRAYER FOR THE CROWN-SHY by Becky Chambers
A HALF-BUILT GARDEN by Ruthanne Emrys
TOO LIKE THE LIGHTNING by Ada Palmer — Some examples of Solarpunk I've read & loved: PLANETFALL by Emma Newman WOMAN ON THE EDGE OF TIME by Marge Piercy A PSALM FOR THE WILD-BUILT by Becky Chambers A PRAYER FOR THE CROWN-SHY by Becky Chambers A HALF-BUILT GARDEN by Ruthanne Emrys TOO LIKE THE LIGHTNING by Ada Palmer

@ninsiana0 @bookstodon Best of luck! I do have to say that “A Half-Built Garden” was probably the worst book I’ve read in the past two decades, to the point that I couldn’t bring myself to finish it. There’s a difference between earned uplift and a kind of cloying coziness that panders to the reader, you know?
