It's better to mention some kind of business-oriented book although don't hesitate to talk about your interests outside of the office. Avoid controversial topics involving religion or politics, just because you don't want to offend the interviewer on a personal note and lose your chances at the position.

Just say what you really read previously . Don't lie and say something you have never read because you don't read. Tell the employer the truth best policy.
