3 Oct 2017. What’s the last book that had you actually creeped out? #BalladForAMadGirl was such a trippy read and I got seriously annoyed whenever I had to put it down. My full review is now up on the blog! TAG: #whatifbook. Thanks, @ly_brary! 🔍 If you could relive the experience of reading a book for the first time, what book what it be? Harry Potter series. No doubt. 🔍 If you could be the hero or the villain of the book, who would you be? Hero. I can be a bit snarky sometimes but I’m not cut out for that villain life. Except maybe in an Artemis Fowl book. 🔍 If you could have three books from your wish list, which ones would they be? Ummmm … a pretty illustrated book on mythology, the Percy Jackson series (which I’ve read but never owned), and the illustrated edition of Prisoner of Azkaban. I’ll be getting POA tomorrow, so WOOHOO! 🔍 If you could be a part of a love triangle who would you be? The person who taps out as soon as they realise it’s a love triangle because they have no time for that shit. 🔍 If you could talk to characters you don’t like, what would you say? I don’t know that I’d be able to speak to them. I may just headbutt them, or glare at them, or … I dunno. I’d probably end up yelling at them after five seconds.

xkcd: the John Murray top 10

Ever wondered how fast you can hit a speed bump, driving, and live? Or when (if ever) the sun went down on the British Empire? And when exactly Facebook will contain more profiles of dead people than living? How many humans would a T Rex rampaging through New York need to eat a day or what would happen if your DNA vanished?

Millions visit xkcd.com each week to read Randall Munroe’s iconic webcomic and have become gripped by his 'WHAT IF' strand, where he goes to amazing lengths to scientifically answer his readers' impossible questions. In pursuit of answers, Munroe runs computer simulations, pores over stacks of declassified military research memos, solves differential equations and consults nuclear reactor operators. His responses are masterpieces of clarity and hilarity, complemented by comics. They often predict the complete annihilation of humankind, or at least a really big explosion.

Randall's long-awaited book What If?: Serious Scientific Answers to Absurd Hypothetical Questions is published today, and so here at John Murray we've decided to take a look back over our top 10 favourite xkcd webcomics:
