Rabbit Hole #33: Best Books I Read 2015

I'm back! January has been very busy so far, as the start of the new semester always is. Add to that the non-stop roller coaster that is our first Mardi Gras experience here in New Orleans, and time just has gotten away from me!

I read a lot of wonderful books last year, so it wasn't easy to narrow this down to my "favorite" reads of 2015. These are the ones that rose to the top, though, after a lot of consideration: 

Fiction: 
          Krik? Krak? by Edwidge Danticat
          A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness
          The Fishermen by Chigozie Obioma

Nonfiction:
         On Immunity by Eula Biss
         Being Mortal by Atul Gawande
         So We Read On: How The Great Gatsby Came to Be and How It Lives On by Maureen Corrigan
         We Should All Be Feminists by Chimamanda Ngozi Adiche

Poetry:
         Citizen by Claudia Rankine
         Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur

Graphic novels/comic collections:
         March Books 1-2 by Rep. John Lewis
         The Wicked and the Divine Vol. 1 by Kieron Gillan

YA:
         Brown Girl Dreaming by Jacqueline Woodsen
         Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe by Benjamin Alire Saénz
         Shadowshaper by Daniel José Older

2016 is already shaping up to be another fantastic reading year, and I can't wait to continue sharing my reading journey with you!
