The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged - Ayn Rand
Sometimes you start a book and you identify with it so much (or it resonantes with something in you) that you can just rip through it. Atlas Shrugged was like that for me - I finished it in something like 6 days!
Tao te Ching - Lao Tzu, trans. by Stephen Mitchell
Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintainence - Robert Pirsig
I had always been aware of these two books but never read them. One day I just picked them both up at the bookstore (not realizing that there was a connection!) and read them. This was during a difficult time in my life and somehow they helped me find the balance that I was seeking.
