Recomented books to read for aspiring Architecture students(for personal statements)?

What books would you recomend to read for those who want to apply for architecture? I need something for my personal statement. Specifically, is there any fiction books that relate to architecture?
Books aren’t going to be much benefit for an architecture PS. Your PS needs to be focused on your creative process and design influences and interests.

If you look at the reading list it is recommended that you read at least one book from one of the sections before you attend the interview.

The entry requirements and process for Cambridge is detailed on the following page where there are PDFs of a past paper and the assessment specification:
