This book was absolutely fantastic. I highly recommend it. http://www.amazon.com/Kraken-Curious-Exciting-Slightly-Disturbing/dp/0810984652
...if you like squid. I'm a squid scientist so I'm a bit biased.
I feel bad suggesting this one because I actually haven't read it yet. It's sitting on my shelf to be read, but The Extreme Life of the Sea
Kraken is one that I have read and enjoyed. It deals specifically with squid. I felt that the subtitle on this one was a little misleading. There really isn't any new information on the science of squid in it. Also, it felt more like "how science is benefiting from squid" rather than" the science behind squid". It was still interesting.
If you're still interested in cephalopods, I highly recommend this book. It was so fun to read! More about squid than octopus and cuttlefish, but definitely wonderful.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!
I suggest Kraken: The Curious, Exciting, and Slightly Disturbing Science of Squid since it is an amazingly informative book about how squid have been used in numerous studies to help humans. It also generally entails how awesome they are.
As for a bucket list... I would have to say travel. Find a cheap flight somewhere or even pick a place you can drive to and go. If there are any music events or festivals you are interested in in another state maybe plane a trip around that!
