Parasite Rex by Carl Zimmer
Disgusting, but fascinating.
A City on Mars by Kelly Weinersmith & Zach Weinersmith

I Contain Multitudes by Ed Yong
The Vital Question by Nick Lane
Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari
The Pleasure of Finding Things Out by Richard Feynman
The Science of Happiness by Stephen Braun
The Lives of a Cell by Lewis Thomas
