One of my new years resolutions this year is to read more fiction, so to that end, I would like to hear what good fiction books the HN community is reading.
My interests tend to align most with these attributes: thought-provoking, comedy, or science-fiction; however, even if it doesn't fit these criteria, please post your best recent fiction reads below!
I recommend reading pretty much anything written by William Gibson, Neal Stephenson, David Wong, or Charlie Stross. (Stross is less recommended only because he writes a lot more and his quality level is less consistent; that said, at his best he competes with Stephenson's best and wins)
