Oh boy. The only way I could think to narrow this down was to list books I’ve read more than once ( so, lots are missing).

In no meaningful order:
1. The Little Prince
2. Cryptonomican
3. Neuromancer
4. The Once & Future King
5. White Noise
6. Santiago: A Myth of the Far Future
7. Tie- LOTR, Dune, and Wheel of Time series
