I recently read The Road by cormac mccarthy. I have to say it was pretty good, in a bleak sort of way. It's got post-apocalyptic cannibals. I think i will probably read it again.
World War Z was pretty good, too. Though apparently i'm the only person i know who's into reading books about zombies.
Also, on the nonfiction front, i highly recommend a book called Infrastructure: a field guide to the industrial landscape by brian hayes. Hayes basically traveled around for over a decade taking pictures of various industrial structures like mines, power plants, steel mills, infrastructure-y things and then wrote this book explaining roughly how all those things work. It's pretty interesting if you happen to be one of those people who wonders what all that stuff is about.
