I am reading Dongri to Dubai by S. Hussain Zaidi.
Growing up in Mumbai in the 1980s/90s, I remember reading news stories about the Mumbai gang wars.
This book covers that in great detail and as such qualifies as a genuine history book.
And yet, it reads like a potboiler. It is essentially unputdownable.

Erich Maria Remarque - Arch of Triumph
So good. A German doctor that fled to Paris during the Nazi occupation and works undercover as a surgion. One day he sees the Gestapo officer that killed his wife. A Cat and Mouse scenario begins.
Also beautifully written, cause Remarque 🙂
