Capt Snow Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 Man, my favorites are so lame compared to your list. Night - Elie Wiesel (Very short very good) American Psycho - Bret Easton Ellis The Rules of Attraction - " " Watership Down - Richard Adams Lord of the Rings - J.R.R Tolkien House of Leaves - Mark Z. Danielewski (Literally difficult to read as the print is all over the place) Good Omens - Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett Harry Potter - JK Rowling (Can't leave these off my list) Pretty short list. I've read a ton of stuff, but most of it was crap, which is why they didn't make it onto my awesome mini-list here. Quote

Cee Posted January 5, 2006 Posted January 5, 2006 (edited) I had to read most of these for school, but I loved most of them because I could choose from a list of 100 books and I'd read a lot before I had to.
