What books would you suggest this junior developer read?

  Many of them. :D Pragmatic Programmers was always a fun start for me back in the day, even some MS Press and plenty of O'Reilly. Most of what I learned came from blogs and time spent at a computer, however. There's no substitute for practicing the art of programming to learning actually useful programming skills. Write, run, rinse, repeat. Have fun :) Oh and when applying for jobs, I found http://pragprog.com/book/algh/land-the-tech-job-you-love http://pragprog.com/book/algh/land-the-tech-job-you-love useful.

  The Pragmatic Programmer, Code Complete, and others in that sort of vein come to mind. Though some of those can be a bit language (and version thereof) specific. It comes down to living in the trenches yourself or learning from someone that has already done so.
