- Severance (no relation to the TV show), which works as a pretty good double bill to the above

Non-fiction:
- The Jakarta Method, on US foreign policy (really should be required reading for every US citizen)

- Poverty, by America, which is in some ways a cathartic read about the systemic ways poverty is incentivized (by the author of the deservedly award-winning Evicted)

- README.txt: Chelsea Manning's memoir, which is riveting - not just about her story, but also in the little details about the information work she did while she was deployed
