Non-fiction or Business books usually aren't easy reading. Which books according to you are easy reads?

I guess 'the subtle art. . . .' series could be an example perhaps.

"The Lean Startup" by Eric Ries is most applicable to today's society I feel because everyone is looking to start their own business.

"The Art of Possibility" by Rosamund Stone Zander and Benjamin Zander if you're just looking to get into a book that will help you form leadership good habits

I personally loved"Zero to One" Peter Thiel; this one totally helped me think about how I'd have to scale a business.
