    I wouldn’t say it’s something I’m ‘in to’ specifically. I do read/watch sci-fi, but it’s not the dominant or only genre for me. I happily enjoy literature, crime, non-fiction, general fiction, biography. Sci-fi is so broad, it’s not just spaceships and laser beams. Just like any other genre, there’s unreadable junk and then also brilliant works that leave you thinking long after you’ve read them. I like the same things about it that I do in other genres, eg human struggles, mysteries to solve, comedy, redemption, action, discovery, drama etc. I mostly read the softer stuff where the sci-fi is not really the point of the story, just happens to allow a ‘what if’ scenario that our current reality doesn’t.
