Favourite books?

hypercolius

Hi, I wanted to start this thread to share what our favourite books are!

Here are mine:

Favourite overall: Life and Death: Twilight reimagined (Meyer). I love romantic novels. Love, theoretically was also excellent as was Love hypothesis :) 

Favourite non-fiction: Assyria: The rise and fall of the world's first empire (Frahm). This caused a massive, obsessive hyperfocus on learning about Assyria when I'm just an astrophysicist!

  • All-time favourite: The Lord of the Rings (I’ve read it at least once a year for the past 50 years! It never gets old.)

    Favourite fiction author: Guy Gavriel Kay (if you haven’t read anything by him, I would recommend starting with Tigana)

    Favourite non-fiction (this changes from time to time, but at the moment): Bruce Barnbaum, The Essence of Photography

    Favourite theological book: Christos Yannaras, Elements of Faith

    PS As an astronomer turned theologian, I find it hard to believe that there is such a thing as ‘just an astrophysicist’!

    Astrophysics by profession, I meant :)
