Book recommendations?

I'll go big

• in literal size
• in florid, poetic verbosity of prose
• in intricate backstory
• in incredible, "larger than life" characters
• in emotions it evokes (ever had a book make you cry and smile at the same time?)
• in declaring it the greatest novel ever written:

Les Miserables by Victor Hugo

• Homo Deus
• 7 Habits of Highly Effective People
• Life 3.0
• Blood, Sweat, and Pixels
• How Not to Be Wrong

Thinking fast and slow - a true masterpiece every developer can learn from. It help you to think critically.

You can check out my Dev.to article on the book:
dev.to/kethmars/how-i-learned-to-t...

99 Bottles of OOP. It teachs a lot of design techniques with cool examples.

My absolute favorite:

Robert's Grave The white goddess from which I learn about Taliesin which in turn made me name my programming language Gwion.

I'd also advice reading Mircea Eliade Aspects du mythe (sorry I can't find it's name in english).

Anything by Selma Lagerlof.

Also look at the eerie similarities beetwen Eliade's Thirteen roses and Orhan Pamuk's Snow.

I just reread The Glass Castle, which is a unique & inspiring memoir. Next on my list is Pachinko which has been recommended a few times.

I've just collected all my book reviews at DevReads, you might find there something interesting.

Right now, I'm reading Lives of the Stoics by Ryan Holiday.

Regarding IT, I've read Code: The Hidden Language of Computer Hardware and Software that is an excellent overview of our profession's history.

There's a book that made me cry: Java Algorithms and Data Structures :D

'The Phoenix Project' is awesome!

I hear The House At Pooh Corner is awfully nice.
