I'm currently reading Bryan Caplan's The Case Against Education and The Collected Ghost Stories of M.R. James (Quite schizophrenic, I know ).
Button Box was surprisingly good. It was an easy read. Neal Stephenson's DODO a much easier read then his other books but you can tell he is a science geek in real life for in the book he makes strange attempts at humor that only antisocial geeks understand LOL

I love Author C Clarke. I am a huge fan of the Odyssey and Time series. I never understood the movies 2001 and 2010 till I read the books then it all clicked. You need to go to youtube and watch the animated movie "black holes" its so funny and there is an Arthur C Clark spoof at the end.
