Comment on Australians, especially men, are reading less than ever before
spiffmeister@aussie.zone 3 days agoIf you’re into sci-fi, how much have you gone through the classics? Most are novel length so don’t require a huge commitment (I too struggle with long books).

A bit but having googled ‘sci fi classic authors’ I can see many more I haven’t picked up. I’ve been trying to catch up/keep up by listening to audiobooks but even then I find myself lacking time. At this moment It’s Revelation Space. I bet if we had a much shorter working working reads rates would skyrocket.

Loved revelation space, but yeah long read.
Arthur C Clarke and Asimov both wrote loads of good novel length SciFi so I’d start there if you haven’t gotten into them.
