Help! Fun help, I think!

Hello there dwircle! Apologies for being absent. Life is absolutely bonkers and I shall not get into it right now because I have a task and it is a happy thing for a Saturday and a way to not think about work.

My nephew is turning 17 next Saturday. My older sister got him a poster of 100 books he should read (I think that's just a list and the poster isn't just... a big blob of text? I hope???) and 6 books off the list. ( These books are: )

I also bought 8 books off the list. ( These books are: )

And then thought... you know what? I have books that I thought were worthy and changed my life. Important books to me, books that brought insight or just taught me new ways to look at things or just deeply affected me at different points in my life (as the 8 above had). ( And I added the following to the list: )

I asked my wife, her friends, my friends, and their friends. ( Here's a list of more we came up with: )

And now I am asking you fine folks. What books would you add here? Books that brought you joy, challenged you, taught you something, or made you feel something? He loves to read, so while he might not read everything, he will try, and I want to give him as wide a variety of authors and subjects as possible. Your help is GREATLY appreciated. Also, wax lyrical about your fave books, fam, I want to hear it. <33333
