I just finished the third book from the series and am really digging it. I especially like the dense plot that doesn't stall, and the light-heartedness of the Bobs.

Can anyone here who likes the series as well recommend similar books, or also completely different books that are as light to read as the Bobiverse books?

You might want to consider Project Hail Mary. It's not a book series but it's hard sci-fi with good story telling and great humour. But no pop culture references.

Thanks, I'll try that!
