Now that 2025 is ending what has been your favorite book you’ve read in the last year?
Mine is Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir (audiobook is the way to go!)
Lesser known: Bury Your Gays by Chuck Tingle. Satire Horror. It was a fun ride.
All Sinners Bleed (mystery noir) by S.A. Cosby and My Friends by Frederik Backman are also my notable mentions


I read my first Ted Chiang this year! I think my favorite was his short story “Tower of Babylon”. It dragged a bit for me but “The Lifecycle of Software Objects” gave me a lot of food for thought with the current LLM mania. I’m looking forward to more.
