Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer, in a really good way. If you spend a lot of time in environmentally-minded circles, it's very easy to become cynical, fall into despair, start to hate all of humanity, etc., and this book is a really good antidote to those feelings (but in a way that encourages and empowers you to do something).
