Er... I still haven't finished these.
I hit a bit of a horror / crime wall and needed a palate cleanser. So instead, I've just finished:
Dark Imperium by Guy Haley, which was a pretty decent entry into the Warhammer 40K universe. I expect I'll start the sequel soon.

The galaxy has changed. Darkness spreads, warp storms split reality and Chaos is everywhere – even Ultramar. As Roboute Guilliman's Indomitus Crusade draws to a close, he must brave the perils of the warp to reach his home and save it from the depredations of the Plague God.

I've just started
The Mystery of the Exploding Teeth and Other Curiosities from the History of Medicine by Thomas Morris. I love this so far -- it's a shocking blend of hilarious, cringe-worthy and impressive!
Quote:
A mysterious epidemic of dental explosions.
A teenage boy who got his wick stuck in a candlestick.
A remarkable woman who, like a human fountain, spurted urine from virtually every orifice.
These are just a few of the anecdotal gems that have until now lain undiscovered in medical journals for centuries. This fascinating collection of historical curiosities explores some of the strangest cases that have perplexed doctors across the world.
