I cannot say what my favourite books read in 2015 were as I cannot for the life of me recall which books that I liked were read in 2015 . . .

That's one reason I keep a list. Another is that after three or four years, I'll forget I read a book before until I'm a couple chapters in.
For non-fiction, these are tied:
Jill Leovy,
Ghettoside: A True Story of Murder in America
Peter Hessler,
River Town: Two Years on the Yangtze
I only read one work of literary fiction in 2015, but it is an outrageous gem:
Samuel Shem,
The House of God
I read a bunch a mysteries and thrillers, but none approached perfection,
Casino Royale included. As always, the entry from this series was most entertaining:
Faye Kellerman,
The Theory of Death
