Malala is good Emil!

Mine will be:

Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed - bought it last year and haven't touched it yet, still sealed.

Doctor Zhivago - my Dad loves the movie/tv series, and it's Boris Pasternak, can't be bad, right?

The Gene: An Intimate History (Siddhartha Mukherjee)- I read The Emperor of all Maladies before and love it!
