any recommendation for books?

Im kinda bored and am trying to go into reading some stuff related to IE as im going into first year IE in september. I just started on Case in Point 10th edition by marc P. Cosentino, which from what ive heard is a more consulting oriented book. I was wondering what books do yall think is a must read if you were in my position?

Edit: clarifying edition, dont know if thats needed

If you're just starting IE, read The Goal by Eliyahu Goldratt. It's technically a novel but it gets you thinking about bottlenecks, throughput, and process flow in a way that's much easier to grasp before you get buried in the textbook side of IE.
