Others:
Lincoln in the Bardo

The Warmth of Other Suns (nonfiction account of the great migration of African Americans north. Reads like a novel)

The Book of Margery Kempe

The Book of Margery Kempe is a medieval text attributed to Margery Kempe, an English Christian mystic and pilgrim who lived at the turn of the fifteenth century.

This book is absolutely fascinating, and hilarious without meaning to be.
