No god but God by Reza Aslan. Its a book about the origins of Islam and its core beliefs.

Its crazy the sort of things we are told about the worlds largest religion and how monolithic a presentation we get in the west. And I know that it isn't what I have been told but I still haven't really figured out what Islam really is.

So this book is kinda helpful in breaking the misconceptions I have.

It gets really liberal at the end.
