The last time I posted this question no one really knew what I meant except for one guy, and he didn't actually tell me what to read, so I'm going to list a few books people have said, and maybe you all can think of something similar.

> Don Quixote - Miguel de Cervantes
I don't really understand what this book is about, but it looks interesting, although quite long. Maybe just the act of reading such a book is sigma, but I don't know if the book is sigma.

>Notes from the Underground - Fyodor Dostoevsky
This book seems like it could be peak sigma, but it could also be peak incel. This is an existentialist book I think, I read the stranger a long time ago, and that book is kind of sigma, so I think it could be good.

>Selected Works - Yukio Mishima
I added Mishima, I've only read Confessions of a Mask, because I'm a fag, but he seems sigma, so I want to read more.

>American Psycho - Bret Easton Ellis
Bateman is pure sigma in the movie. I assume he's a simga in the book too. I hope the book is good, I worry it isn't as good as these other books.

>The Catcher in the Rye - J. D. Salinger
This book is pure middle school/high school cringe, I doubt I will include it in my Sigma Male reading list. I don't know why anyone said it was sigma, I think they took sigma to mean edgy?

If you've read it, you know it's not incel. It's obvious that he moved the prostitute with his words and could have started a family with her, but he very willingly changed his mind and spat at her to push her away.
