Since the shutdown I've read "Green Eggs and Ham" by a noted Dr. Seuss about 800,000 times. Quick read; can't put it down honestly. Lots of highs and lows but it all works out in the end.

In seriousness, I've been reading "Midnight in Chernobyl" by Adam Higginbotham. You can probably guess what it's about but more than an account of the disaster, it's an interesting and eye opening (and honestly frustrating) look at how governments handle daunting national crises with lots of obvious parallels that resonate with the current times.
