Everything All at Once by Bill Nye

+.

The Devil and the Dark Water by Stuart Turton

=

Bill Nye must solve a series of mysterious crimes including theft, witch hunts, and murder on a 17th century East Indiaman ship. I'd read the heck out of that.

The last two books i've read are my Aerodynamics book for an exam. And Harry Potter and the philosopher stone to help my sibling make a review for English class.

Sooo... Potter will see how his magic fares against a rocket.

Archeological evidence explaining Tezcatlipoca and two multi million year old robot space skeletons acting like bickering old men.

Well, if we're allowing the textbook that I'm going through chapter by chapter weekly in college, Legoshi of Beastars fame would probably be learning HTML and CSS so he can properly design a website. Don't know why, but that sounds kinda funny.

Textbooks not included, it'd be a weird mix of Bakuman ( a story about a couple of kids ( starting off near the end of 8th grade ) who wanna become mangaka ) and the world of Beastars, where anthros roam the streets. I wanna say at some point it was confirmed that humans do exist in the Beastars universe but are basically super rare or something like that, so it's not completely out of the question.

The map of your face?🤔

Do textbooks count? Last two books I touched were Shigley's Mechanical Engineering Design and the ASQ Lean 6 Sigma Yellow Belt Handbook. I guess I end up with another reference book about designing parts with process optimization in mind? Actually, now that I say that, that's pretty much just a DFMA (Design for Manufacturing and Assembly) book.

Isles of the Emberdark by Brandon Sanderson and The Three-Body Problem by Cixin Liu

Actually... actually I don't think you'd have too hard of a time combining those two. A wildman from ancient China discovers outer space and aliens?
