Books in 2015

It's a couple year's late, but here's my list of books that I read in 2015.

1. An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth - Chris Hadfield
2. Sphere - Michael Crichton
3. Saint Odd - Dean Koontz
4. The Lost Island - Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child
5. Blue Labyrinth - Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child
6. Twilight Eyes - Dean Koontz
7. The Gunslinger - Stephen King
8. House of Odd - Dean Koontz and Landry Walker
9. The Dancing Wu Li Masters - Gary Zukav
10. A Wrinkle in Time - Madeleine L'Engle
11. The Martian - Andy Weir
12. The Fallen Curtain - Ruth Rendell

I'd have to say that my top three books this year, if my memory serves me right, were An Astronauts Guide to Life on Earth, The Dancing Wu Like Masters, and The Martian.

An Astronauts Guide to Life on Earth was fascinating and full of great life lessons. And I'm a big fan of Chris Hadfield.

The Dancing Wu Like Masters was fascinating. It was a really slow read for me and parts of it could be tough to get through, but it was a really interesting mix of physics and philosophy. It really made me think a lot and there was more than one occasion where I felt like his explanations of quantum mechanics resonated well with LDS doctrine, or at least my understanding of it.

The Martian was simply a really fun, intense and engaging read.
