Reading Antifragile by Nassim Taleb was eye-opening for me. I turn to the concepts of the book whenever I feel unsure about a decision or opinion.

The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand. It's terrible and fascinating at the same time. What I took away from it is that there is an inherent value in things you build yourself and a moral right to own your creations. I know the book is flawed in many ways, but I still think it's an interesting read. Wouldn't exactly call it my bible, but I don't think any book fits that description.
