>what's the most spiritually powerful book you've ever read?

The Lord of the Rings. Especially towards the end, when The Scouring Of The Shire happens, or when Sam must put on the Ring.

Perhaps Moby-Dick, though it is less overtly mystical. It's very powerful for physical effect, though.

It's actually really interesting to think about how reading the books generates different feelings than watching the movies.

For example, everyone knows about the charge of the Rohirrim in ROTK. In the movies it's amazing, but the scene in the books is at a whole other level.
