I recently read Cranford by Elizabeth Gaskell, a great book with a lot of heart. The ladies of Cranford could sometimes be a bit silly, but you love them anyway.
I also finished The Disappearing Spoon: And Other True Tales of Madness, Love, and the History of the World from the Periodic Table of the Elements by Sam Kean.
The history, science, trivia, and anecdotes behind each element of the periodic table. It held my interest throughout.
