I read a shit-ton of science fiction books and the main reason is that I find them useful as a prelude in doing further research for various scientific issues that I'm unaware of. That and the fact that they're fun.

Can you please provide the list of sci-fi books ? I am really missing good books from sci-fi genre, these days.
Sure, here are the best ones I've read this last year (not all of them are published in 2020 though).
We are legion - D. Taylor. A four book series, haven't read the rest of the books.
Children of time - A. Tchaikovsky
The Unicorn Project - G. Kim. This would be especially interesting for the HN crowd. It's not sf per se, rather more than contemporary fiction, but the main theme is about programming and politics in a big corporation. Quite original and a lot of fun.
Agency - W. Gibson
The space between worlds - M. Johnson
To sleep in a sea of stars - C. Paolini
The algebraist - I. Banks
Hope you'll find something to your liking. Happy new year.
thanks a lot. Wish you same !

Altered Carbon, read it before you watch it imho. Amazing, awesome book/series.
