The Crying of Lot 49 by Thomas Pynchon

Moon Palace by Paul Auster

Underground by Haruki Murakami


--------------------
Acid doesn't give you truths; it builds machines that push the envelope of perception. Whatever revelations came to me then have dissolved like skywriting. All I really know is that those few years saddled me with a faith in the redemptive potential of the imagination which, however flat, stale and unprofitable the world seems to me now, I cannot for the life of me shake.

Science = 'Six Easy Pieces'

Drama = Steven King's UNABRIDGED 'The Stand'

Humor/Fun = 'Guards, Guards' by Terry Pratchet

Pratchet is awesome, but his style is crazy... Just read one and find out. :smile:

Leviathan - Paul Auster


--------------------
Welcome evermore to gods and men is the self-helping man.  For him all doors are flung wide: him all tongues greet, all honors crown, all eyes follow with desire.  Our love goes out to him and embraces him, because he did not need it.

~ R.W. Emerson, "Self-Reliance"

I agree, read philosophy books like they're gonna disappear forever tomorrow.

Also read:

Chronicles by Bob Dylan
The Life of PI by some canadian dude (good story)
The Ender's Game books by Orson Scott Card (good sci-fi stories, not too weird though!)
Any classic literature you can get your hands on
Any Poetry you can get your hands on (chicks love poetry)
Any book by Aristotle you can get your hands on (I know I mentioned philosophy already, but Aristotle rules!)

And last but not least:
The Big Book of Buds, Volume 1 & 2 (a lot of pictures if you don't like words so much! :grin:)

there are many more good books I've read that I can't think of.... the way I find a new one is quite simple.  Go to Barnes and Noble or Borders or whatever and pick up a book that looks interesting.  Stick it down your pants or buy it and go home. Sit down near a light. Read it in it's entirety. (unless it's really bad) That's it, you've just found a new book/author/genre that you are interested in.

"I agree, read philosophy books like they're gonna disappear forever tomorrow."

I read philosophy every day, without fail.

Yea, 1984 was a great book, and yes, they did make us read it in highschool.

If your into fantasy novels, I personally have enjoyed The Wheel of Time series.

Dark Tower series also, i've only read the first three though, been waiting for the others to come out in paperback, takes forever :frown:
