Had to check my own website to remember which ones I really liked and was actually from my reading this year. But here goes:
How to build a car - Adrian Newey: I think even people with only engineering interest and not specifically cars, would find it interesting. What a joy it must be to work in a field where you have to be super creative and each week can measure your progress against other extremely clever teams and people.
Going the wrong way - Chris Donaldson: A bloke driving around the World on his Moto Guzzi LeMans. Probably only interesting if you are into bikes, but very weel written and enjoyable. I have read a lot of "around the World on motorcycle"-books and this is up there with the best.
Sandworm - Andy Greenberg: Probably the best fit for HN of the books I mentioned. Extremely interesting look at the hack that left Maersk paralized for several days. I read it shortly after Russia started invading Ukraine and it really educated me a lot about the situation leading up to the actual invasion.
