Looking to pick up some economic themed books. I just finished the big short and Flash boys by Michael Lewis, along with The Frackers. I'm just kind of interested in modern economics and looking for more to read.

I don't have any recommendations outside of what some have already listed in the Money Talk Guide LINK. However, I am interested in your opinion of The Frackers. I am reading Guns, Germs, and Steel right now and I have The Frackers on an Amazon Wish List momentarily. Once I complete Guns, Germs, and Steel I was planning on picking a book off of the Wish List and ordering it.

So, I assume you've read Moneyball and The Blindside, as well?
Barbarians at the Gate is good, although that's going back.
When Genius Failed - by Lowenstein is also good.

If you liked Lewis, Liar's Poker is his best IMO. For lighter reading, the Freakonomics books are good. I read Tap Dancing to Work (Buffett) recently and enjoyed it.
