You should read The Hot Zone by Richard Preston. It's about the Ebola outbreak that first appeared in 1976. Not for the faint of heart!

Most of mine have already been mentioned, but if you like "pre-teen" and fantasy books, then the Nevermoor series would be good for you. the three books so far are Nevermoor: The Trials of Morrigan Crow, Wundersmith: The Calling of Morrigan Crow, and Hollowpox: The Hunt for Morrigan Crow. It is a currently on-going series, and is really good so far. Hollowpox and it's ending is by far my favorite book.
Also the Wizards of Once quadrilogy(four books)the series finished not that long ago, and it is really good, in the same genre as the Nevermoor series, it also has a good mystery and world building.

Like sci-fi? Try any of the Vorkosigan Saga by Lois McMaster Bujold. Or Bobiverse books by Dennis E. Taylor. They are both great series, character driven, written by authors that are interested in their characters as much as the setting.

A few more:
The Hinges of History series by Thomas Cahill. He describes eras that if they hadn't happened the way they did, we would not be the way we are now. The first title he wrote is "How the Irish Saved Civilization- It's no joke, they really did.

Also, Exodus by Leon Uris. I almost flunked out of college the semester I read it, instead of doing homework
