Books You May Enjoy

I didn't read (or re-read) much in 2014, but I enjoyed these:

• Lauren Beukes: The Shining Girls
• Elizabeth Green: Building a Better Teacher
• David George Haskell: The Forest Unseen
• Ben Hatke: Zita the Spacegirl (and its sequels)
• Jennifer Michael Hecht: Doubt: A History
• Peter Higgins: Wolfhound Century (and its sequels)
• Susan Jacoby: Freethinkers: A History of American Secularism
• Richard Landes: Heaven on Earth: The Varieties of the Millenial Experience
• Ann Leckie: Ancillary Justice
• Philip Mansel: Levant: Splendour and Catastrophe on the Mediterranean
• Terry Pratchett: Going Postal, Night Watch, and The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents
• Philip Reeve: Mortal Engines (and the rest of the Hungry Cities books)
• James Scott: Seeing Like a State
• Viviane Schwarz: Welcome to Your Awesome Robot
• Ian Tregillis: Bitter Seeds (and its sequels)
• Colson Whitehead: Zone One

There aren't any programming books in the list: I read several, but they all felt tired. On the other hand, Spot It and Forbidden Island were a lot of fun, and I'd recommend both.
