Seveneves, Silo and The Flood series for that danger to humanity aspect.
Venomous Lumpsucker for a fun climate story with a quest. I really enjoyed this one.
To Be Taught, If Fortunate. This was a really lovely read about exploring another planet.
Remnant Population. What happens when an elderly lady refuses to abandon her failing space colony? Fascinating and unusual scifi, and a really enjoyable read!
Bobbyverse, Mickey7, Murderbot, almost anything by John Scalzi, for the mix of feelgood and excitement. Zero Stars, Do Not Recommend for a fun, goofy scifi/disaster holiday read.
