The Glass Bead Game is one of the best books I've read, and I think palpably changed how I think about some things even though I read it as an adult. I even wrote a blog post about it: https://moalquraishi.wordpress.com/2013/05/05/the-glass-bead-game-by-hermann-hesse/ https://moalquraishi.wordpress.com/2013/05/05/the-glass-bead... Another book I'd recommend (in a very different category) is Godel, Escher, and Bach, by Douglas Hofstadter.
