Best Books You Have Read?

The Hobbit and The Hitchhiker's Guide To Space.

Not yet mentionned in the thread, Michael Crichton books (Jurassic Park, Sphere, The Terminal Man, ...)
The Eight by Katherine Neville, which is really, really great.
The Bourbon Kid series: The Book With No Name, The Eye of the Moon, The Devil's Graveyard, The Book of Death.

I loved a saga that i think its not that well known called "The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel", there are 6 books they are all fun, fast and easy to read, full of adventure. The author is Michael Scott. I totally recommend it

I'm too tired to make an exhaustive list (I just arrive from a hard test) but besides some others titles mentioned before, you can select any book from Terry Pratchett

The Witcher saga and The name of the wind + The Wise Men's Fear

i absolutely recommend the night-angel trilogy from brent weeks

Women by Charles Bukowski is my all-time favourite.

Ready Player One by Ernest Cline

"A Long Walk" - Stephen King (as Richard Bachman) - i'm a huge fan of King and I find this book most terrifying, brutal and outrageous.
Lovecraft stuff about Cthulhu - enough said.
"Catch-22" Joseph Heller - it's classic, god dammit.
"Elantris" - Brandon Sanderson - I was just astonished by this book, maybe because I started to doubt if there can be any good fantasy book written nowadays.
"Solaris" - Stanisław Lem - hard thing to get through, but it was worth it. I also recommend any other books written by Lem. This man was amazing.
Recently i'm reading "I am legend" by Matheson and although I haven't finished it yet I find it very good. I think I will love this book when I got to the end.

Internet Manual which was pretty short: DON'T CLICK ANYTHING.

Zombie, Ohio: A Tale of the Undead - Scott Kenemore

The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. Simply amazing.

Gardens of the Moon by Steven Erikson
Discworld series by Terry Pratchett
Achaja series by Andrzej Ziemianski
and, frankly, a shitton more that i no linger remember ;)

World War Z is my favorite non-classic. The movie was awful and nothing like the book.

1984

George R. R. Martin - A Song of Ice and Fire

Metro 2033

I LOVED this book. I highly recommend everyone who is interested in knights, magic, or castles to read it. This is in my top 3 favorite books of all time. Amazon allows you to take a peek inside so you should be able to read a little bit of it. clicky

Escape from Furnace. A very good 5-book series.

William Gibson is my favourite writer! Neuromancer (my top book so far), Count Zero, Mona Lisa Overdrive (it is supposed to be serries). I recommend Haruki Murakami too!

I liked the Fountainhead, but I think that depends on the kind of literature you like. It's pretty long.

The Dark Tower Series by Stephen King, probably the greatest set of books i have read.

The Idiot, by Fyodor M. Dostoievsky. Hands Down. Better than LOTR. Haven't read the "Song of Fire and Ice" series though, heard that's pretty good.
