Just assembled a new bookshelf to hold some of my favorite books about computing ☺️ 
Two of these I see mentioned less often:
- A People's History of Computing in the US: great counterweight to hero narratives in computing history
- Changing Minds, by diSessa : incredibly deep insight into designing empowering computing environments for kids

Also, The New Media Reader is incredible. Felt like someone had perfectly curated a collection for my interests
Of course, I don't claim to have come close to understanding all the wisdom in these pages. Even SICP alone feels like a decade of study to grasp 😅
Perhaps another underrated book here is Weaving the Web, by TBL.
Why bother with secondhand explanations of the web when you can go right to the source
