i don't really have one so many good books but i am open to suggestions please post them as well as one or more of your favorite books.

Guards Guards by Terry Pratchett

The Kite Runner by Kaled Hosseini

Any book written by Terry Pratchett. Dreamcatcher by Stephen King good and all

Silmarillion, by JRR Tolkein, the story of Beren and Luthein remains my favorite love-story of all time.... but, if you're even a little bit into the whole middle earth mythos, this is a must read....
or if you're into science fiction read issac asimov or ac clarke... Foundation was bloody awesome....
i haven't read orson scott card, but he's supposedly the new god of sci-fi...

I am Legend by Richard Matheson pretty good.
Something Wicked this Way Comes By Ray Bradbury
Woman Warrior by Maxine Hong Kingston

The Dark by James Herbert, the scariest book i've ever read

The Godfather By Mario Puzo.

The Bridge of Birds by Barry Hughart

This novel of an "Ancient China That Never Was" follows the quest of Number 10 Ox, a chinese peasant, and Master Li, an ancient scholar and sage, as they search for the Great Root of Power to save the children of Ku Fu Village from a powerful and intelligent plague. The two serve as a sort of Chinese Holmes and Watson dropped into the middle of an Indiana Jones movie and the quest that follows is one of action, adventure, comedy and tragedy that cuts through Chinese Myth, History, Culture and Geography like a hot knife through butter, and at a breakneck pace that never lets up. There are narrow escapes, bloody battles, ancient ruins, shape shifting demons, ghosts, gods and mad alchemists. It stirs emotions, lifts spirits and draws more than a few laughs before the end.

Anything by Terry Pratchett, especialy if it involves Rincewind

Hiddlebits:
Anything by Terry Pratchett, especialy if it involves Rincewind

That's funny, in most interviews Terry Prachett talks about how much he dislikes writing Rincewind and cannot understand why people like the character so much. Personally I'm pretty sure his favorite character to write about is Sam Vimes (as Nightwatch is the hands down best Discworld Novel).

I have a good few, But these three instantly come to mind:

Slaughterhouse 5 by Kurt Vonnegut
Cien años de soledad by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Les Caves du Vatican by André Gide

Islands in the Stream by Hemingway, A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole, and The Naked and The Dead by Norman Mailer.

Probably The Lord of the Rings, but anything by Anthony Horowitz or Darren Shan is great.

InkHeart and InkSpell

Thieves' World

My personal favourites.

Neverwhere, by Neil Gaiman
Naming The Wind by Patrick Rothfuss
A Song of Ice and Fire (Series) by Geroge R R Martin
The Demon Wars (Series), The Crimson Shadow (Trilogy), Ynis Aielle (Trilogy), and Spearwielders Tale (Trilogy) by RA Salvatore
The Word/Void Trilogy (Trilogy), The Shannara (Series), and Landover (Series) by Terry Brooks

Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell
The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck
Foundation by Isaac Asimov
2001: A Space Odyssey by Arthur C. Clarke

My favorite is Catch 22 by Joseph Heller

On a Pale Horse(I can't remember the auther)
Contact Harvest(still can't remember the author)

Two weeks ago I would have probably said Frostwing by Richard A Knaack, American Gods by Neil Gaiman, or Tooth and Claw by Jo Walton...

But after reading Dragon's Wild by Robert Asprin, it just shit-kicked all the above. I am not kidding, I picked up the book one night, COULDN'T put it down.

Not one book, but whatever.

'The Culture' series by Iain M. Banks

Defenitly Meanwhile back at the ranch written by Kinky Friedman. And of course the cat said nothing.

"Silmarillion, by JRR Tolkein, the story of Beren and Luthein remains my favorite love-story of all time.... but, if you're even a little bit into the whole middle earth mythos, this is a must read...." - Wahi

that book is soooo hard to read, the stupid names are unpronouncable. I didn't even get any part of the plot because too much of my attention went to trying to read the names of the characters, until I finally gave up.

If you like medical suspence books, chromosome 6 is a pretty good read

If you havent covered it in school, Catcher in the rye. Fantastic novel.

Also, try out some Hunter S thompson out for size. I'd start on hell's angels. Fear and Loathing might give you a very slanted opinion of what you think he's all about.

TMAN10112:
On a Pale Horse(I can't remember the auther)

On a Pale Horse was written by Piers Anthony, it's the first book of The Incarnations of Immortality series, this is the best one, second best is Book 6: For The Love of Evil.

- The Dark Tower (series) by Stephen King, because I can't honestly find one thing I don't like about the books.
- Snow Garden by Christopher Rice, you think "Okay, it's a book written by Anne Rice's son. It's gonna be all half assed poetic or something." It wasn't and that amazed, it was really good.
- The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis, I'm probably the worlds biggest 8 year old for admitting that, but I love it.

Heroics for Beginners: "Who'd you catch in the vent traps today?" "3 girl scouts, 6 adventurers, and a busty barbarian woman" "Hmm... order 3 boxs of thin mints then execute them all at dawn." "Very good my lord..."
World War Z: "How do you fight something like?"
Zombie survival guide: This is how you fight something like that.

Anansi Boys by Neil Gaiman was fabulous. World War Z is also a great read.

1984, Great Expectations or The Gulag Archipelago.

i liked "Junktion". i don't remember the author, but it's in the Necromunda series published by the Black Library.

"World War Z" and "The Zombie Survival Guide" by Max Brooks. I'm looking forward to the recorded attacks graphic novel coming out soon, also. And the WWZ movie.

"The Road" by Cormac McCarthy. Looking forward to the movie with Viggo Mortenson.

"1984" by George Orwell. I need to re-read it, because it was my freshmen year in High School.

"The Book of Five Rings" by Miyamoto Musashi.

"American Gods" by Neil Gaiman, my favorite of his works, including Sandman. It would make an amazing graphic novel.

"The Tao of Jeet Kune Do" by Bruce Lee.

Hagakure (hah-gah-koo-rei) had a good number of useful and interesting anecdotes about life. too bad there's like 11 different versions of it. X_X

Captain Underpants

Jolly Madness:
Anansi Boys by Neil Gaiman was fabulous. World War Z is also a great read.

I actually (blasphemy) like Anansi Boys more than American Gods, it's snappier and alot more fun.
