The Rule of Four is a great book for somebody interested in puzzles. College roommates at Princeton are trying to interpret a 500 year old book, the 'Hypnerotomachia Poliphili' which even scientists and scholars haven't been able to figure out. The process of decoding it involves a lot of numerology and cryptology.
Incorporate that in a college environment with papers and the perils of college life, this book kept me connected to something or the other continuously. Although I did feel that the emotional shit could've been toned down a bit.
