Books:

The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists
An African in Greenland (New York Review Books Classics) The author reads a book about Greenland and decides to leave his home country at a young age to visit. It takes him almost ten years until he finally steps foot on Greenland. Encouraging book if you are thinking about making a big change.
Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion Required reading. Breaks influence and persuasion down to a science.
Mean Genes: From Sex to Money to Food: Taming Our Primal Instincts Fun read that ties together evolution and the way modern humans behave. Men will find the parts on taking “social risk” to be most helpful.
Patterns of the Hypnotic Techniques of Milton H. Erickson, M.D This book taught me how subtle differences in word choice can drastically change the meaning of what you communicate. It has influenced my game and writing.
Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman! (Adventures of a Curious Character) My role model—a character who is smart, interesting, charismatic, and funny. This book chronicles Feynman through a variety of journeys, from his scientific achievements to his experience picking up women in bars.
The 48 Laws of Power Required reading and future classic. If you haven’t read this book yet, why are you still alive?
Art of Seduction This book makes the list not so much because of its real-world applications but because it forces you to carefully think about the way you interact with the opposite sex, and how they interact with you.
The Dirt: Confessions of the World's Most Notorious Rock Band The most entertaining book I’ve ever read. It made me realize how much of an utter square I’ve become, due to complacency and laziness.
Think and Grow Rich Every self-help book is just derivative of this great work, which teaches you how important thinking is when it comes to getting what you want. You can replace money with whatever goal you are working on.
Walden: (Writings of Henry D. Thoreau) People have been sold into living a complicated life at a cost of their own happiness and well-being. Even if you read this in high school, you need to revisit it once more as an adult.

Heroes:

Superman, Batman, Spider-Man, Pegasus Seiya, Voltes V, City Hunter, Godzilla, Gamera
