Top Reddit reviews mentioning Geology books:
I bought this book after a vacation to Iceland and found it to be very informative. It's well written and has good maps. I think it could be a good starting point for you.
I think it would be better said that most of the features could be explained by other processes. However, for some of them, life might be a better explanation. And with other rocks showing other signs, it is still ongoing research. I find some of the features of Y000593 particularly compelling. A few years ago, I enjoyed reading <u>The Rock from Mars</u>, which was a book focused just on the AH84001 meteorite and the various work involving it. Recommended if you're interested in the topic.
That I agree with totally. In my opinion though that would probably spell the end of us as a species after a few generations.
If you like these kind of thought provoking scenarios might I suggest a book written by an old lecturer of mine. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Earth-After-Us-legacy-humans/dp/0199214972 It makes for a thoroughly enjoyable read.
Dr. Eby. His book is used at a few schools. He's a genius and such a sweet man, but his intelligence can be quite intimidating at first. He cares about his students too so he try's to keep the text as cheap as possible. Great man and influential in his field/fields.

There's a great book on interesting geological sites that you can visit by public transit. Even if geology is not your thing, a lot of them are just pretty places to go for a walk/hike.
