People in the software industry have long argued about a definition of architecture. Ralph Johnson famously defined software architecture as "the important stuff (whatever that is)." I, subjectively, followed his definition while deciding whether or not to include a specific book.

I thoroughly reviewed all books tagged with software-architecture on Goodreads and picked the best objectively—see the selection criteria below. I don't think, by any means, this list is comprehensive. Yet, I'm planning to update it regularly to make it as comprehensive as possible.

The books are sorted solely based on the number of written reviews. There are, however, other important factors worth considering. For example, the average rating, the number of ratings, and the publishing date. Yet, I don't have an idea to put all these factors in a reasonable mathematical formula. If you have any, I'd love to hear what you've got in mind.
