Sure, my Top 5 books by non-whitemen I read in 2014 are:

FICTION

1. Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie - Americanah 2. Terezia Mora - Der einzige Mann auf dem Kontinent (not translated yet I think) 3. Octavia E. Butler - Parable of the Sower 4. Jose Saramago - Blindness 5. James Baldwin - If Beale Street Could Talk

NONFICTION

1. Melba Patillo Beals - Warriors Don't Cry: The Searing Memoir of the Battle to Integrate Little Rock's Central High 2. Sendhil Mullainathan & Eldar Shafir - Scarcity: Why Having Too Little Means So Much 3. Laura Fermi - Atoms in the Family: My Life with Enrico Fermi 4. Judith Newton - From Panthers to Promise Keepers: Rethinking the Men's Movement 5. Sikivu Hutchinson - Godless Americana: Race and Religious Rebels

and as a bonus, because it's written by a white man...

Jeffrey Haas - The Assassination of Fred Hampton: How the FBI and the Chicago Police Murdered a Black Panther

Not that I hold it against him, but José Saramago was a white guy (although he was pretty tan).

It is a pretty great book.

Awesome, thanks, I'll have to check some of these out!

How about top 5 all time good books by non-whites (not just what you read in 2014).
