I'm not much of a fan of popcorn shrimp but I do like popcorn, does that count?
I liked your recommendations. I had not heard of Allison before, but I skimmed the Rolling Stone article & can sympathize. In her spirit of self-promotion, here's a guest post I wrote for Jane Friedman's blog on my 23 years as a self-publishing novelist. https://janefriedman.com/lessons-from-23-years-as-a-self-publishing-novelist/
I'm a fan of 'Arrival' (I recently wrote a substack essay about it (among other things) -- in fact I'm a fan of all things Ted Chiang. So we're in sync on that.
And I wasn't aware of Jason Becker either, but I did lose my beloved brother Paul to ALS, so I'll certainly read that Guitar World story as soon as I can find the courage to do so.
Hope things are well in your new home. If you ever get out my way, stop and say hello. You'll feel at home. We have a large & vibrant Brazilian community on Martha's Vineyard.
