@SallyStrange@bookwyrm.social Starter Villain is definitely in the popcorn genre of Scalzi books; it's a snack and doesn't take itself too seriously. (I think most of his standalone novels fit in this popcorn category for better or for worse.) If you want something longer, I think his Interdependency space opera trilogy (starting with the Collapsing Empire) is probably what I'd recommend, mostly because it takes itself a little bit more seriously but still has delightful characters.

@picklish@books.theunseen.city awesome, that's actually super helpful. Thanks! :)
