The first book I picked up was The Coming of the Third Reich, by Richard J. Evans, which is a history book on how the Nazis came to power (reading this in part due to history repeating itself and want to mentally prepare). But at some point it become too heavy to continue on properly and wanted to read something lighter, so started reading The Fabric of Civilization: How Textiles Made the World, which is a history book about fabrics. It's really opened my eyes on how important textiles really was, and how even modern computing has some lineage in textiles too.

I think when I'm able for it, I'd want to read about Japanese history in the Japanese language, and Latina/Hispanic history in Spanish. I'd also say Irish history in Irish, but even English, our main language here, doesn't really have decent Irish history books outside of primary and secondary education. But I do have an Irish book picked out that was supposedly an amazing book and helped in part spark a mini revival of the language many years ago, called Cre Na Cille. Which is about undead spirits shooting the breeze in a cemetery. It's supposed to be comical from what I've heard.
