Lots of Jack Reacher books. Some Tom Clancy and Brad Thor books.
Tarkin by another legendary Star Wars author, James Luceno. Tarkin tells the post-Clone Wars, pre-A New Hope story of how legendary SW character Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin (played by the incomparable Peter Cushing in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope) went from being Governor of his home planet of Eriadu to running the Death Star construction project, including his expedition to Murkhana with the one and only Darth Vader.

Great Reacher stories, there are a couple of stories (one that I am reading currently) about his teen years. Nice to see something different...still Reacher, just less refined?

The Concept of Sin by Josef Pieper. I'm reading this for the second time, actually. I find it's crucial to read some books twice.
