Wildhood by Dr. Barbara Natterson-Horowitz and Kathryn Bowers
I cannot stop mentioning things I learned from this book. It will make you rethink behaviors typically considered to be uniquely human in a new, more informed way. If you’ve ever looked at adolescent human behavior and thought “why in the world would they do this crazy, stupid thing?”, you may be pleased to know that we are far from the only species that engage in these behaviors.

Famous Men Who Never Lived by K Chess
Famous Men Who Never Lived is a literary sci-fi novel about refugees from one universe having to move on to another because of radiation poisoning. Only a certain amount of people were able to go, so the people who did move onward left potentially everyone they ever knew behind. Mainly this book focuses on a couple who want to salvage important bits of history from their universe.
