The Must Read Books for those looking to enjoy reading again

Hey guys, I have seen this posted a few times, but I wanted to bring it up again. It's regarding the books that are a must-read. I am fresh out of school and finally have some time to read some books. I have read a few from that I believe all should be on this list: Liar Poker Straight to Hell The Big Short Quants (A new breed of investors)

I want to kind of keep it along the same line where the book has a lot of valuable information, but it does not feel like you are sitting down to read a textbook.

I feel like that is what most people are looking for when they are reading. I thought this forum would be a good spot for everyone to throw in some books that give you a lot of information but are very enjoyable to read at the same time.

I'm looking forward to the responses.
