The Lord of the Rings
Man, I used to read a ton of books. Not so much anymore. I should get back into it again. Maybe I can read some of these.
Anyway…one book huh? I think as far as meaningful books, The Metamorphosis is tops for me. As far as fun or entertaining reads, well, that’s hard to say. I’m partial to Michael Crichton myself. Just about all of his works before State of Fear are incredible. State of Fear was honestly, pretty dang boring. After that…well, I haven’t read Next or Pirate Latitudes, so I can’t speak to those. Also, he apparently wrote a number of books under pseudonyms, which I haven’t read either.
You all lose. The correct answer is clearly The Bible.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

okay, sorry, seriously, my recommendation is The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents by Terry Pratchett.
That little red book, for those of you who haven’t already read it.
Pride and Prejudice, I’m not even kidding. You read that or listen to the audio book, you will start talking like a gentleman, your T-shirt will turn into a waistcoat and you will be able to smoke a pipe like a pro.
Labyrinth of Reflections by Sergey Lukyanenko
You have to lrn2russian first but it’s worth it.
+1 Because Carl Sagan is the man. That fucking hair! Beautiful.
A Briefer History of Time is pretty rad
Arthur Conan Doyle’s The lost world (don’t like Victorian English? Deal with it, this is my pick [mostly because Ramirezoid Stole my other Picks])
Your Changing Body
Yes an book on puberty and and alll things as such
Mike Crichton’s Lost World > The real one. Something about it not boring me into conniptions and having dusty fucking pages.
Prey and Andromeda Strain also by Crichton.
Fear and Loathing + The other one about Hell’s Angels by Johnny Depp
Shogun
jack kerouac’s on the road
American Psycho.

OMG, I was deciding between that and a new book I read recently, Susanna Clarke’s Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell, but House of Leaves just kept me reading it until it was finished.

no one even understands how much better the book is than that shitty movie

Well, at least you’re perceptive.
This.
The Road.
not because it’s been made a movie. i saw the movie afterwards, convinced that it would be futile. and it was OK on its own, but it doesn’t matter. you can’t translate stunningly beautiful language into film. and that was the principal strength of The Road. initially i was drawn to it because of the post-apocalyptic theme.
