For me reading the Tao Te Ching was a game changer. Some of the ideas in that book really changed my perspective on things.

    "Speaker for the Dead". Despite the authors horrendous personal views on a lot of issues, this book has a profound impact on me as a young teenager with an interest in philosophy. What really stood out to me was the way complex philosophical concepts were made easily accessible. I also liked the reckoning journey Ender went on and how it took his personal struggles in the first book to their extreme (though imo logical) conclusion.
