Book 14: The Last Lecture by Randy Pausch
It is a relatively short read but I would recommend it to anyone. It goes by pretty fast and the story that he is telling keeps you enthralled the whole way through. It was written specifically for his kids to remember him. I would have loved to see his full lecture; I was able to see clips of it.
Randy was a professor who found out his cancer had metastasized in his liver and he only had a short time left with his family. I don't want to say more about it because it really is a fun read and you've got to love his charm and charisma; it does come out in the book. I thought it was really powerful and well written.
I think most people would enjoy it.

I loved this book, too. I learned after I read it that where they lived in Virginia is actually in my area.
