A bit long, but gorgeously written, Stephen King's Duma Key is a great read. Got shivers reading it. Guy essentially loses his arm in a construction accident and moves to Florida to get away for a while and recover, only, weird things start happening. You'll have to read it to know what I mean ;P
I know I'm super biased, but I still think Drunkard's Walk is some good stuff that everyone should give a try. It does a great job in advovacating the beauty of probability and statistics, and it's super fun if you're into science (or biographies). Of course Mlodinow will not give you a lesson on how to use p values, but you can expect much history of mathematics, psycology and neuroscience well written and documented (with lots of references).
Another great book about probability (contextualized in short real stories) is Math on Trial: How Numbers Get Used and Abused in the Courtroom.
And I'm currently reading that popular one, Fermat's Last Theorem by Simon Singh. Great investigative work and really interesting book about Number Theory.
I also want to try some Carl Sagan, did anyone read something from him? I heard great reviews on The Demon-Haunted World.
Currently on book 8 of 9 of Naomi Novik's Temeraire series. It's basically a historical drama with a twist set during the Napoleonic wars and centers on Captain William Lawrence. The twist is that most of the nations have an aerial corps consisting of dragons.
Am currently reading Funny Weather: Art in an Emergency by Olivia Laing. It is really apropos for our current circumstances. Loved her previous book of essays too, The Lonely City: Adventures in the Art of Being Alone.
Veronika Decides to Die, a novel by Paulo Coelho The author of The Alchemist addresses the fundamental questions asked by millions: What am I doing here today? and Why do I go on living? A quick read.

Within these pages, he provides his personal views on our biggest challenges as a human race.
The Unbearable Lightness of Being, a novel by Milan Kundera
Best for last, Milan Kundera is my favorite author. Milan Kundera tells the story of a young woman in love with a man torn between his love for her and his incorrigible womanizing and one of his mistresses and her humbly faithful lover.
Recently re-read an old favorite of mine: Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe, by Benjamin Alire S�enz. This book made me cry in an ice cream shop. Very good read.
Late night rec: 'The Nickel Boys' by Colson Whitehead won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction this past Monday and I cannot recommend it enough. A tough read based on a real life reform school in Florida and the nightmares that occurred there.
Also, just finished up 'All Who Go Do Not Return' by Shulem Deen. I don't read many memoirs but I was moved by it.
