My favorite book published in 2017 was absolutely Adrian Neweys autobiography How To Build A Car. I just couldn't stop reading, even though the last few chapters were rubbish.
My overall favorite book I read was The Queue by Vladimir Sorokin. It was not so much the story that captivated me, but the writing style. I've simply never read something that was so simple, yet so brilliant.
A must-read for all those people that see themselves as intellectuals, and look down upon popular books for being 'too simple'.
