The Woman Who Smashed Codes by Jason Fagone is an excellent narrative non-fiction.

Non-Fiction - I'm currently reading Disabled Ecologies by Sunaura Taylor and it is amazing - would highly recommend. Dismantling the Master's Clock by Rasheedah Phillips is also so cool even if some of it (i.e. the quantum physics) is way beyond my understanding.

Fiction - I've been enjoying classic Japanese murder mysteries. The House Murders series by Yukito Ayatsuji has been especially fun. Also, for the absolute most unhinged (but amazing) book I've read in a long time: Victorian Psycho by Virginia Feito.

First, congrats on your father's book! Second, here are two book recommendations: (1) In fiction, I found Fiona Davis's The Lions of Fifth Avenue to be a riveting page-turner. (2) In nonfiction with a strong narrative hook, it's tough to beat the excellent Unreasonable Hospitality, by Will Guidara.
