Fiction:
1. First Law cycle by Joe Abercrombie - too much violence for me is first books, but last trilogy is quite interesting.
2. Dark Tower by Stephen King - do I need to say more?
3. Old Man's War by John Scalzi, like this guy writing.
4. The Farseer trilogy and The Liveship Traders trilogy by Robin Hobb - pure pleasure.
5. Shades of Magic trilogy by V.E.Schwab, re-read, preparing to read new cycle.
6. Some Terry Prachett books.
Non Fiction:
1. Ghost Map by Steven Johnson, about cholera outbreak in London in 1854, but more about society and life of that period.
2. Donnie Brasco - FBI guy infiltrated to one of five Mafia families and bring many people to justice, worth reading.
3. Oppenheimer by Kai Brid - didn't watch movie yet, prefer to start with book.
4. Sex at Dawn: The Prehistoric Origins of Modern Sexuality by Christopher Ryan,
Cacilda Jethá - interesting stuff about our sexuality and how we became who we are.
