Yep. I would re-read it on a semi-regular basis as suggested. I need to go back to it. Unfortunately my much loved copy (with highlights and underlines) was given to a family member so now I am left with my Kindle version.

Designing Data-Intensive Applications is probably one of the absolute best technical books I've read.

Code Complete - 2 times: clearly it's a good book.

HHGTTG is fun, but it doesn't hold together as a cohesive narrative in the same way.

The selfish gene - 2 times - that's not programming wise, but it's an awesome book to get your thoughts rolling.
