First of all, can I just say how much I love giving and receiving book recommendations? I was a religious studies major in college (and was even a T.A. in the World Religions class) so, this is right up my alley. So, I'm just going to take a seat in front of my book cases...

I've recently been reading John Dominic Crossan's The Birth of Christianity : Discovering What Happened in the Years Immediately After the Execution of Jesus. Some chapters are highly accessible (though I would skip over the many chapters that cover his methodology). I enjoy historical criticism, so I've been enjoying all of it. YMMV.

Is another. Neither are what I would call textbook quality as far as history is concerned but they are interesting none the less. Like I said, I would be interested in something more anthropologically historical during the time period and how it relates the people of the time and the need for this new religion. I've always found history interesting and more recently, specifically religious histories.
