If you like things that are on the less serious side, the Humans Are Weird series by Betty Adams is hilarious, adorable, lighthearted, and fun. Usually written from the perspective of the various aliens, and she does a damn good job of it too. Been reading I Have the Data with friends, and it's been a grand time

I thought I recognized that art! I just love her work!! She did some character art for my D&D group, and it's phenomenal! This is her site, if anyone else is interested: https://galadrielcoffeen.com/
