If you are interested in other aspects of the USSR,

The Gulag Archipelago by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn is a great book. It's not about the revolution, but the force labor camps that existed in the USSR after the revolution. The author was a prisoner in one of the gulags. The Russians were ruthless.

I bought this about a year ago but haven't got around to it yet. I try to stay somewhat chronological when reading about certain places/eras so I'd like to see more about how it all started first.

The revolution is directly tied to WWI, so August 1914 as well by Solzhenitsyn.
