Not the last book I read but I would certainly recommend Eric Hoffer's "The True Believer".
It will give one great insight into what is currently happening to Americans at this moment, even though he published it in 1951, following WWII.
If you are not a "reader" this is a perfect book for you.
It is written in a small number of short, concise chapters, almost like he was trying to teach children & young adults about the complex subject of what happened to the German peoples' society in the 1930s & 1940s at a time when your average adult was not in the habit of deep, introspective, analysis.
We still aren't, so it's a very useful teaching guide even today.
Really good "bathroom" book as each chapter times out at about the same amount of time one might cop a squat for their daily ablutions.
Typically I keep 2 books going, 1 novel + 1 anthology or collection of short stories.
That way I have something to read suited to my allotted time or desired interest to immerse myself in a full-length read.
Currently those 2 books are;
"Pew! Pew!; Bad versus Worse" - an anthology edited by M. D. Cooper
(4th of 5 books in the Pew! Pew! anthology series.)
"To Challenge Heaven" - Book 3 in the "Out of the Dark" series by David Weber & Chris Kennedy
(Vlad the Impaler takes on the Galactic Hegemony & revenges the near eradication of humankind by orbital bombardment.)
