Books pertaining to the 2008 financial crisis !

The 2008 credit crisis rocked the global financial system like never before except for the great depression. It showed how fragile the entire system is, when some of the big enterprises just collapsed and many were on the brink. If not for the coordinated efforts of the governments around the world, it would have been disastrous. There are quite many books published in the wake of this crisis, exploring the causes that contributed to this over the past 2 to 3 decades. Here are some of the titles that are somewhat interesting.

Too big to fail.
The big short.
Mortgage meltdown.
It's different this time.
Fault lines.
On the Brink
The end of Wall Street.
When markets collide
Lords of Finance.
Fooling some of the people all the time.
A colossal failure of common sense.
