Other than the books on the list(s) on the site, does anyone have any reccomendations for any books (textbook or otherwise) involving Physical Chemistry in any way?

i like Physical Chemistry by Atkins.

I also like Quantum Chemistry by Donald McQuarrie.

Either or. It doesn't matter, just... any books that you could reccomend about P. Chem would be great.

We used Atkins at uni, the best I've read so far is "thermodynamics of pharmaceutical systems".

"thermodynamics of pharmaceutical systems" isn't applicable for me. I am a chemical engineer and my favourite thermodynamics textbook is "Thermodyanamics for Chemical Engineers" by Bett, Rowlinson & Saville.
