It's just come to my attention that _The Mathematicians' Library_ is shortlisted for @chalkdustmag 's Book of the Year 2025.
It's got quite some company! Merely being on that list is a privilege, and I'll take it, thanks.

As well as my book's review (at the beginning of this thread) Chalkdust are posting reviews of the other (also brilliant) books:
The review for Adam Kucharksi's _Proof_ is here: https://chalkdustmagazine.com/book-of-the-year/proof/
@chalkdustmag
Another contender: _A Little History of Mathematics_ (by Snezana Lawrence) looks great (it's on my TBR pile and I've had a flick through, but haven't started it yet): https://chalkdustmagazine.com/book-of-the-year/a-little-history-of-mathematics/
Make sure you vote for your fave book on the list (even if it's not mine!)
@chalkdustmag
And then there's Robin Wilson's _Sum Stories_. I don't yet have a copy of this, but it's on my list: https://chalkdustmagazine.com/book-of-the-year/sum-stories/
It may be of interest that Robin is also making a series of videos on the same theme: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4d5ZtfQonW0yqeFK__FirrjjmcQFpyye

Eugenia Cheng's _Unequal_ is shortlisted too, and there's a review here: https://chalkdustmagazine.com/book-of-the-year/unequal/
Voting ends at midday today!
