For those interested in non-fiction, particularly psychology stuff, you should check out Oliver Sacks; a very cool science writer, academic genius and ex-tripper. He could be described as an experimental drug taker in the purest sense, similar to Alexander Shulgin he had a keen scientific curiosity that compelled him to play around with his brain. His latest book is called Hallucinations and Im very keen to check it out. Ive read some of his other stories and theyre absolutely fascinating, though often hard science parts that concern brain anatomy have been a little bit beyond my grasp. Here is a TEDtalk he did. Hearing him speak makes me fangirl every time, he has such a distinctive, heart-warming voice and is a fantastic speaker, and keeping it in mind when reading his books definitely adds enjoyment to the experience. youtube/watch?v=SgOTaXhbqPQ
