> - Code Complete by Steve McConnell

It has good parts. But it has some very bad parts too, when it reinforces myths that, IMO, are very wrong (e.g.: cone of uncertainty, X times better programmer, etc).

I'd recommend to read it with care.

> - The Pragmatic Programmer by Andrew Hunt and David Thomas

After many years I still read parts of it, again and again. And I still like it.
