I've got 2 other 3.5s that I read for my job as a professional reviewer for a publicist.  The reason I am listing these separately is that they are not novels.  One is inspirational, and the other is historical:

4 Ideas with Actionable Wisdom - Bob Boylan

100 of the Worst Ideas in History - Michael Smith & Eric Kasum

Get reading, people!
