If you have such crippling social anxiety that you cannot name literally any book, whether you've read it or not, and you can't even make one up, the odds of you performing well at an interview are extremely small.
Also, assuming one or more came to mind, maybe I'm paralyzed in an interview because I'm thinking about what the ones I can think of imply, whether they give away my age, or whatever.
It would be easy to talk about a book if I was warned ahead of time.
I'm not sure I even know where my copy is, but if I chose one book that I've read that more people should know about, it would be:
"You Don't Always Get What You Pay For: The Economics of Privatization" (Elliott D. Sclar)
But in an interview on the spot, I absolutely wouldn't have come up with that.
