Reminiscences of a Stock Operator by Edwin Lefevre. I felt long overdue in reading this one. Tells the tale of famed trader Jesse Livermore. At heart, it provides great insights into the mentality that is required. Such as follow the trend and don't let the noise and fluctuations distract you.

The Little Book that Beats the Market by Joel Greenblatt. Largely a tip of the hat to Benjamin Graham and value investing. The key is to look for companies that combine high ROAs and high earning yields to generate a margin of safety. And that the market can get it wrong in the short term, but generally figures it out in the end, Not much else to say about it.
