Finishing up Yeast right now, but my reading material these days consists of peer reviewed journals(and HBT of course). Though I fit in some Terry Brooks whenever he releases a new one.
Breakfast menus for restaurants that went out of business in the 80's.
Hmm.. Captivating reads? I am partial to back issues of Sears catalogues myself. They seem to have the best sales, especially when you look back 10-50 years.
'Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption' by Laura Hillenbrand. Historical book about Louis Zamperini, a POW and Olympian. Read it a couple years ago. It was hard to put down.

Just finished 'Wonder Boys' by Michael Chabon, and before that his best-seller 'The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay'. What an amazing writer - great stories with a raw sense of humor. I've also been thumbing through 'For the Love of Hops' and just started 'True North' by Jim Harrison. Good stuff.
Cool thread - props to the OP.

On a lighter note though I recently read My Life as A White Trash Zombie which was a fun read if you like the whole zombie genre. Hounded: The Iron Druid Chronicles, Book One is probably 30% done on the Kindle right now and though it took a little getting used to I am enjoying it too. If you are a fan of urban fantasy (Dresden Files for example) it's worth checking out.

Yeast and Designing Great Beers. Last week I ordered For the Love of Hops and Beer School: Bottling Success at the Brooklyn Brewery
