I've just collected all my book reviews at DevReads, you might find there something interesting.

Right now, I'm reading Lives of the Stoics by Ryan Holiday.

Regarding IT, I've read Code: The Hidden Language of Computer Hardware and Software that is an excellent overview of our profession's history.
