Be me.
Tired of reading filler books that I forget two weeks later.
I want something I can return to for the rest of my life. Something with the weight of a sacred text, even if it's secular.
What is your "Bible"? That one book you've read 10 times and still find new meanings in?
No YA garbage, please. Give me something that actually explores the human condition.

Nietzsche of course.
Any of their main books are just masterpieces.
If you had been raised in religious education I recomend "On the Genealogy of Morality".
"Thus Spoke Zarathustra" is also impressive.

Yes, but freud and jung are worth reading too. They build on top of his psychology.
