The Kingkiller Chronicle: The Name of The Wind. Very interesting heroic fantasy novel, although the last book is not published yet.

I avoided Stephen King for a long time, but honestly he's really good. Particularly The Stand. Also John Le Carre.

For a novel - Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton. I read it every couple of years and it captures me every time. The mix of wonder, technology, suspense. I'm not sure if it's my favourite but it's certainly one of the most dependable books that I come back to.

Emotional Intelligence by Daniel Goleman, more specifically the tenth anniversary edition. Great insight into emotions. Also see Flow by Mihaly Csikzentmihalyi. There are many points in the book that piqued my interest about happiness and focus.

I'm currently reading Rationality: From AI To Zombies by Eliezer Yudkowsky. It's a difficult book to read, but revels a lot about who we are as humans, how we function and cognitive biases. PS: It's a massive book and it's free!

I'm into sci-fi. I'll recommend The Player of Games as a gateway to Iain Banks' culture series.
