I read the Ian Toll trilogy about the Naval War in the Pacific in WWII.
If you are interested in that stuff, it reads much better than your typical history tome. And it IS huge.

Just started on Peter Schweitzer's 'Blood Money'.
Was thinking of sending a copy to Trump with a note to make sure his 2nd term DOJ needs to "settle the family business".

The last couple things I read were "Lessons in Chemistry", which has an Apple TV show based on it, and "Signal Fires" which seems to be highly regarded but all the characters fell flat for me. Also, Signal Fires is not written in chronological order and the jumps don't have any specific pattern except "okay, now it's time to reveal this piece of info".
I listened to "Gods of Manhattan" on tape and I'll likely borrow the book from the library at some point.
Currently reading "Pinata" by Leopoldo Gout.

Read “Shirting the Grid” if you want to know why flipping the switch won’t turn the lights on.

Alison Weir and her Tudor biographies.
"Hammer of the Gods" - Led Zeppelin story
A reread of "Serpentine" by Thomas Thompson, story of Charles Sobhraj of the "bikini murders" in the 1970s.
"Bad Blood," story of the Theranos fraudster Elizabeth Holmes
And then one of my favorite books "The Hamlet" by William Faulkner, best Southern writer ever.

Reading Elmore Leonard’s collection of Old West short stories from the 1950s (30 of ‘em; and Leonard can surely spin a tale). Nice break from politics.

“Bibi” — Netanyahu’s recent autobiography is very revealing of the duplicity and chicanery of the leftists — in both Israel and in the U.S.

I just finished “Pickett’s Charge : A New Look At Gettysburg’s Final Attack” by Phillip Thomas Tucker.
In history, Pickett’s Charge has been viewed as a poorly conceived suicidal attack on the Union center. This book disputes that and claims that the attack, if properly carried out, could have shattered the Union center and forseeably (sp?) caused a Confederate victory.

Last was Bibi, an autobiography of Benjamin Netanyahu.
Now, half way through The Complete Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant.
