“Links to a bunch of great longer articles from 2017 on topics in science and Technology,. Reminds me of an online version of a book series I used to read every year called "The Best American Science and Nature Writing 2013". You stumble across topics you wouldn't otherwise see.”

Not sure if this is the right fit?
Consider The Overstory by Richard Powers. Recommended by 17 sources.
“A literary novel that interlaces multiple human stories over centuries, all orbiting around trees and the natural world. The reading pace is slow, lyrical, and demands attention, but rewards those who love richly layered narratives. What works best is its deep, almost spiritual evocation of tree life and a call to environmental consciousness. However, the novel’s sprawling cast and sometimes preachy activism can feel exhausting, and the middle sections may drag as connections slowly emerge. It’s immersive for the patient, alienating for the plot-driven.”
