Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance (Non-fiction)
The Art of War
Iranian Rappers and Persian Poorn (Poorn spelled the real way in book title)
I hope they serve beer in hell

I've been a voracious reader since I was but a child. We didn't have no TV and in retrospect, I'm glad. My grandma once told me that she was so glad when I learned to read so she didn't have to read to me anymore.
I've named but a few here that I've read. I have no idea just how many in total, but I expect that it's deep into 4 figures.
I've learned far more from reading than I ever learned through formal education. This is a topic dear to my heart.

Game of Thrones
Frackers
The Big Rich
That's just off the top of my head what am I missing that qualifies? I know there are a bunch more.
