I’m attempting to organize my bookshelves and settle on which books to bring to college. It’s going rather poorly, but I did manage to come up with a list of the gap year’s most memorable readings thus far:
- Neuromancer, by William Gibson
- Braiding Sweetgrass, by Robin Wall Kimmerer
- Un Lun Dun, by China Miéville
- Till We Have Faces, by C.S. Lewis
- Madness, Rack, and Honey, by Mary Ruefle
- The Martian Chronicles, by Ray Bradbury
- East of Eden, by John Steinbeck
- I Am Crying All Inside, by Clifford D. Simak
- 100 Selected Poems by e.e. cummings
- The Paper Menagerie, by Ken Liu
