The stack behind Kate: Madam Secretary
On the side table behind Kate sits Madeleine Albright's Madam Secretary, the 2003 memoir of the first woman to run the State Department. Back in season 2, Kate gets told to pick a gimmick, "pins like Albright," and goes with a black suit instead. Two seasons later the pins still lost, but the book made the set.
