    Normally I'd be recommending some kind of Sci-Fi or Fantasy series, but based on your reading list, here's a couple of books from the boring science genre that I actually finished, so they have to be at least somewhat worthwhile:

    - Scale (Geoffrey West) - When Everyone Knows That Everyone Knows… (Steven Pinker)
