Happy New Year Codeforces community!

Last year I started reading more books than usual, and this year I want to keep up the pace. For this reason, I came here to ask for your book recommendations.

I will appreciate CP/Problem-Solving related books, but feel free to recommend anything! :)

Please share your recommendations, and again Happy New Year!

Edit: I apologize if I didn't respond to your recommendation. To avoid creating unnecessary flood, I want to thank everyone who shared their favorite books. I'm really grateful for your recommendations!

https://cses.fi/book/book.pdf is pretty enough for grinding. For beating FANG coding interviews you don't need Kormen or Knuth stuff. It's overkilled.

My favorite sci-fi I've ever read is "The Three Body Problem" by Lui Cixin and I would recommend it to anyone wanting a good read.
