OK, 25 in 2015. Let's go.
- Maddaddam (Maddaddam #3); Margaret Atwood
- OK. OhhhhhK. Margaret Atwood is the boss. The Handmaid's Tale is one of my favorites, and I've loved this series. I think this installment was a fitting end... but it still ripped a hole in my heart.
- The Magician King (The Magicians #2); Lev Grossman
- Really liking this series. I liken it to a cross between Harry Potter (as a disillusioned Millennial) and Narnia (as a still magical but sort of scary dystopia.)
- The Paying Guests; Sarah Waters
- What Color is your Parachute? 2015; Richard Bolles
- This has been recommended to me since... I don't know, high school? So I finally gave in. It was aight.
- The Magician King (The Magicians #3); Lev Grossman
- Loved this series.
- Griftopia; Matt Taibbi
- "I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take it anymore!" But seriously, this was a great if you're into populist economics and/or generally flummoxed or pissed off by the state of our global economy.
- Tenth of December; George Saunders
- I read the bulk of this collection while I was in Europe... but I couldn't bring myself to finish the last story until well into December. I just didn't want to let it go.
- Life after Life; Kate Atkinson
- The Stand; Stephen King
- A God in Ruins; Kate Atkinson
- Liar, Temptress, Soldier, Spy: Four Women Undercover in the Civil War; Karen Abbott
- in progress...
- The Buried Giant; Kazuo Ishiguro
- I read Never Let Me Go last year, and it left a hole in my heart. But it was absolutely beautiful and I loved it. The Buried Giant reads like a fairy tale (very sort of matter-of-fact, no-frills writing) but it hit me (and has stuck with me) in similarly complex ways.
- A Fighting Chance; Elizabeth Warren
- Full disclosure: I listened to this as an audiobook... but Elizabeth Warren reads it! How cool is that?! Full disclosure 2: I heart her.
- Stone Mattress: Nine Tales; Margaret Atwood
- in progress...
- The Martian; Andy Wier
- Legit finished this book in three days, only one of which was a weekend. Believe the hype.
