I Came Upon a Lighthouse by Shantanu Naidu

 A very clean and neat memoir of Shantanu Naidu's interactions with Mr Ratan Tata. The book is beautifully crafted with nice, colourful illustrations and the choice of language is of the purest. It never gets boring or disinteresting. Although not a biography of Mr Ratan Tata, the book puts him under great spotlight and showcases portions of his life which the general public would not be made easily aware. It is almost as if Shantanu's purpose in life was just to put forth the great Mr Ratan Tata under spotlight albeit in a very different way. And that, is something Shantanu has accomplished very well indeed!! 

The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari by Robin Sharma

Robin Sharma has done a phenomenal work of bringing Spirituality to the masses via a simple fable. If he had written the book just as paragraphs and teachings with a title as "How to be Young & Happy Forever", the takers would have been very less, yours truly included. By making it as a dialog between two buddies, by adding catchy phrases like Monk and Ferrari, by creating a tale out of nowhere - he has packaged it all so superbly and subtly that one hardly gets the feeling that it is a non fiction book which is fictionalized! And even in the fiction, he has nicely crafted the listener's character as every "normal" human being on Earth being "busy with work" and "building a retirement fund" (as he puts it so well) and being a critic. The dialog is simple and natural, the tale progresses very fluidly. A great read. In fact a book that should not just be read but principles mentioned need to be practiced. I could relate a lot of the principles mentioned to great many sages's teachings as well.
