Recommend me a book...

I'd recommend Russell Brand's biographies My Booky Wook & My Booky Wook 2.
I am in no way a fan of his, even though I do find him entertaining at times, but for me it's always interesting to see where people in the public eye have 'come from'.
His books are funny and entertaining as well as being a nice easy read.

Well, it's McNab's account of the patrol Bravo Two Zero which got compromised and he got captured by the Iraqis. Has a few other odds and sods in there as well. So it's a true story. However, there is also Immediate Action which is McNab's account of his army history etc and is also true.... Both are very difficult to put down once you start reading them.
If you like strange stories then something like Weaveworld by Clive Barker. If you like Horror, then Sepulchre or Rats, Lair and Domain by James Herbert.
t? By Steve Lowe and Alan McArthur. It's a few years old now but the rants are hilarious. They did a follow up but I didn't enjoy it nearly as much as the first.A factual one for you:

Very educational and enjoyable read. Not just science in an easy to understand format, but a little about the people who pioneered the sciences.
I've read it about three times now, hope you enjoy

The dark tourist by dom jolly.
Not really a fan of his tbh but a very interesting book about his travels as a dark tourist. Gives you snapshots of places in an amusing anecdotal way. Including
North korea
Skiing in iran
Pripyat
The killing fields in cambodia
Took me about a week to read and will read again.

Dark tourism (also black tourism or grief tourism) is tourism involving travel to sites associated with death and suffering. Thanatourism,[1] derived from the Ancient Greek word thanatos for the personification of death, is associated with dark tourism but refers more specifically to violent death; it is used in fewer contexts than the terms dark tourism, grief tourism, and quite tourism. The main draw however to these locations is mostly due to their historical value rather than their associations with death and suffering.[2]
This includes castles and battlefields such as Culloden in Scotland and Bran Castle and Poienari Castle in Romania; sites of disaster, either natural or man made, such as Hiroshima in Japan, Chernobyl in Ukraine and the Ground Zero in New York; Auschwitz in Poland; prisons now open to the public such as Beaumaris Prison in Anglesey, Wales; and purpose built centers such as the London Dungeon. A notable example is how tourism to Detroit is sometimes geared towards looking at the fall of the former glamor instead of what it has managed to retain. It also includes other sites of human attrocities and genocide, such as the Nanjing Massacre Memorial Hall in Nanjing and the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum in Cambodia.
