Ask HN: What good books have you read in 2016?

Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman

This book was an unexpectedly amazing overview of the history, current status and possible future of human beings.

That is an excellent, though fucking brutal book.

Reread Blood Meridian. The newness of good books twenty years later is one of the benefits of getting older.

reading this one now, very good book!

I highly recommend it.

Letters from a Stoic Getting Real Cambodia Noir Vagabonding All great reads!

I started the Wheel of Time series and am currently through book 3 and I am loving it.

Currently reading: "The Information - A History, A Theory, a Flood" I like it so far.

Farenheit 451, A Clockwork Orange, Handmaid's Tale - Much better and scarier than any news clipping today

This book should be required reading. One of the best experiences I've ever had with fiction was reading this in high school.

Superintelligence by Nick Bostrom, one of the leading minds analysing and developing AI as it relates to human civilisation.

it is certainly worth a read

Good read and made me really appreciate what Elon has done through financially to get Tesla and SpaceX up.
