Without a doubt, the best book I read in 2017 was the three body problem (first in a trilogy). I actually came across it in an interview with Alina Cohen of Initialized via the 20 minute VC podcast. It intrigued me to not know what it was about, and I recommend that people who are interested in reading it go in with as little information as possible.

Going to start the second one this weekend :)

The trilogy as a whole is simply mind-blowing. This is high up on my list also.

If you're like me, you will be gripped as quickly as the first chapter!
