Books I've Read In 2015

This is a somewhat boring post; simply listing the books I have read in 2015. They are listed in approximate order of totally subjective importance, interest, and general awesomeness. I will keep this post updated as I add more books. Over the next few months, I will probably write some posts discussing the more interesting of these books.

Thoughts on "Between the World and Me"

I recently finished the most powerful book I have read in years: "Between the World and Me" by Ta-Nehesi Coates. Frankly, it is not the type of book I often read; it is short and contains almost no numbers or statistics. Instead, the book is letter from the author to his son on the experience of being a black man in America today. The specifics of his story are powerful, the philosophizing is important, and the writing is quite beautiful (something which I rarely dwell on).
