Every time I get lucky enough to go to a bookstore (we don't have any in my stupid town), I read tons of back covers and bits of chapters and flyleafs to find something that sounds interesting or attention grabbing.

And i just...am not. Not a lot of recent fiction has even remotely gotten my attention enough to read more of it, which i find sad. The newest thing I'm currently reading is 'The Expanse' series, which I only started reading because the tv show is so fucking good. I hadn't even heard of it, before, anywhere, so it wasn't on my radar.

I've been really disappointed by a *lot* of recent publications. Maybe it's the genre (i like sci-fi and fantasy), maybe it's my experiences with really good fanfic, I dunno. But i'm underwhelmed by a lot of what's out there.

I've been having the same experience. Though I'd been wondering if it wasn't depression-based: maybe it's not the books, it's me?

But a lot of what I've been looking at seems really samey to me. And maybe that's the function of having been around long enough to have read all of the plots multiple times before.

'Samey', exactly. It's just...i'm not seeing anything new or interesting. Maybe it's the style of the blurbs on the back, i just don't know. But nothing out there grabs me much at all.
