In no particular order...

Your inner fish - Neil Shubin (Glad you took my advice here)
Origins: 14 Billion years of cosmic evolution -Neil degrasse Tyson
Physics of the impossible - Michio Kaku
The Alchemyst: The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel - Michael Scott (Entire series is awesome)
The selfish gene -Richard Dawkins
Black Holes, Wormholes & Time Machines - Jim Al-Khalili
Death by Black hole -Neil degrasse Tyson

Now I read a lot and have several book cases full of books, this was hard but all of these are books that I have read more than once and would recommend to any and everyone. I read a ton of Science, Evolution and Physics related material so if it seems rather drab then that is why. But I love it so meh.
