Ask HN: What are your favorite books? I'm bored

I like HackerNews, I feel like there are a lot of smart people on here and I find it a creditable source for knowledge and information.

Anyways lately I'm bored and have time to do stuff I want to read stuff that makes me smarter. Anything interesting about life, religion preferably Buddhism. But anything that's life changing and eye opening I'm willing to read. Plus I like to know what other folks are reading to stay sharp and on edge. Or the top most popular or must read or whatever works.

just throw some suggestions at me.
