I want to learn more about the history and government of the USSR. Obviously this is a very broad area but do you have recommendations for books on the topic?

I can't recommend This Soviet World enough. It's a first hand account of what life in USSR was like in 1930s, and it's one of the most uplifting and optimistic things I've read in a while. It does an amazing job of capturing the spirit of USSR.
