nora (noraelsea) | 61 comments What If? Serious Scientific Answers to Absurd Hypothetical Questions by Randall Munroe

Books 50.

4,5 stars. The cartoon illustrations that accompanied the explanations were funny. The "weird (and worrying) questions from the What If? inbox"s had me laughing out loud.

Book 51.

5 stars. This one had been sitting on my TBR for too long, finally I picked it up. I actually cried near the ending, when *it's a spoiler*. It was a fun book, the humor and romance were just amazing. A new favorite.

Book 52.

5 stars. Applauds for Miss Claudia Gray for writing the first sci-fi book I've ever finished (I tried Jay Kristoff twice and never finished either of them, but I will someday. Tried other books as well, but *shrugs*.) A-lifelike-robot-who-slowly-develops-emotion is enough for me to dive into this book, as I'm soft for it.

Book 53.

5 stars. As a fellow hijabi-wearing Muslim, I can relate to Shirin. This book got me out of my reading slump. Now, it wasn't flawless, but boy did it make me feel things.

Book 55.

4,5 stars. I started reading this a while ago, and left it at around 65%. I have too much DNFs so I continued this book. Anyways, it was awesome.
