Sophie's World by Jostein Gaarder talaga ang recommended sa mga nagsisimula pa lang sa philosophy, pero pwede mo ring dagdagan nito

1. History of Western Philosophy by Bertrand Russell
2. The Republic by Plato
3. Meditations on First Philosophy by Rene Descartes
4. Nicomachaean Ethics by Aristotle
5. City of God by St. Augustine
6. What is Enlightenment by Immanuel Kant

Madadali lang intindihin yang mga yan, pero advice ko lang na mas maganda na may solid foundation ka sa history ng philosophy, connected lahat ng Western philosophers in some way or another.

Camus and Kafka are really good. Would sprinkle in a little bit of Salinger's Catcher in the Rye in there
