Recently:
"Panzer Aces II" by Franz Kurowski. Numerous accounts about some well decorated panzer commanders. A little uneven at times, but a couple of the accounts are excellent. The Kindle edition is a pretty piss poor transfer though. A lot of mistakes. I would hope the print version is better.
Definitely made me want to get some of his other "Aces" titles, even if the Kindle versions may be a little iffy.

"Black Edelweiss" by Johannes Voss. A young SS soldiers experience in Finland late in the war. A theater I know very little about. The conditions they fought in were amazing.

Currently:
"Tigers in the Mud" by Otto Carius. About the career of panzer commander Otto Carius. So far, a little meh, but not too bad.

On Deck:
"At Leningrads Gates" by William Lubbeck
And a monster book (896 pages

) "Armegeddon in Stalingrad-September to November 1942" Volume 2 of the Stalingrad trilogy by David M. Glantz.

The above two ought to keep me busy at least through the rest of the year(and probably until spring as well
