I aspire to transcend from school mathematics to non-routine problem-solving, I would be honored if you could recommend texts that cater to this transition. Specifically, I am preparing for Olympiad, which is a stepping stone to the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO). The Olympiad exam syllabus encompasses four pivotal chapters: Number Theory, Algebra, Geometry, and Combinatorics. Your expert guidance in suggesting texts that cover these topics would be instrumental in laying a robust foundation for my preparations. You can also guide me on whether to opt for separate books for each chapter, which would provide in-depth knowledge, or if there's a single comprehensive book that would suffice for a strong starting point. Thank you for considering my request, sir. I eagerly look forward to your recommendations
