I would recommend these:

11/22/63 - very good but explicit language throughout
All of Malcolm Gladwell's books
I liked David and Goliath, Blink and What the Dog Saw. Outliers is good too. Tipping point was just ok
A Man Called Ove - excellent book
The boys in the boat - one of the best books you will ever listen to imho.
Freakonomics- all 3 books by these guys
Flash Boys
The Wright Brothers by David McCullough
David McCullough books - the Johnstown flood, started the great bridge but never finished.
Moneyball
A bunch of John Grisham books, the whistler, the confession, and the firm... I like Grisham books
One Summer by Bill Bryson
Home by Bill Bryson

A short history of everything by BB is on my list as well as 1776 by DM

Books I would not recommend
The girl on the train
Inferno
Memory man - easily the worst book I have ever listened to
