    A lot but here are the most recent ones (all non fiction)

    Immense World : How Animal Senses Reveal the Hidden Realms Around Us by Ed Yong
    Essential for understanding how other creatures live in our world and insight on how ours evolved to what it is right now.

    How to Be Perfect: The Correct Answer to Every Moral Question by Michael Chur
    Really great intro to practical ethics that is incredibly accessible as far as ethics books go. Everyone should at least skim this.

    A Guide to the Good Life: The Ancient Art of Stoic Joy by William B. Irvine
    Best introduction to in my opinion the most important philosophy branch of western culture - Stoicism!
