  • The Book of Phoenix, *Nnedi Okorafor

  • Seveneves, Neal Stephenson

  • Binti, *Nnedi Okorafor

  • The Vagrant, Peter Newman (abandoned 3% for excessive grimdark-itude)

  • Aurora, Kim Stanley Robinson

  • Updraft, Fran Wilde

  • Too Like the Lightning, Ada Palmer

  • League of Dragons, Naomi Novik

  • Forest of Memory, Mary Robinette Kowal

  • Freedom in the Family, *Tananarive Due and Patricia Stephens Due
    This is another memoir of the civil rights era, and I don't know whether it was the writing style or the fact that this one didn't concentrate on guns as the be-all-end-all, but I enjoyed this one a lot more than the last one.

  • The Discreet Hero, +Mario Vargas Llosa (Peru)

  • +Embers, Sandor Marai (Hungary)

  • The Automobile Club of Egypt, +Alaa Al Aswany (Egypt)

  • The Ballad of Black Tom, Victor LaValle

  • The House of Daniel, Harry Turtledove

  • Haiti Noir 2, ed. Edwidge Danticat (Haiti)
    Not technically from the Reading the World list but I found it by searching the library for one of the authors on my list, and it's all stories by Haitian authors, so I think it qualifies.
