<p>"Night by Elie Wiesel"</p>

<p>No kidding? That's one of your favorite books? Interesting. We read it in ninth grade and people were incredibly distrubed and uncomfortable reading it. I appreciated the book and felt it very powerful and effective-- not to mention unforgettable-- but I can't fathom reading it again, ever.</p>

<p>Sloppy Firsts/Second Helpings by (forget the author, someone else mentioned it earlier)
the Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath
all the Harry Potter books (3/6/4/1/5/2) by J.K. Rowling (of course)
Angus, Thongs, and Full Frontal Snogging by (something) Rennison
Oedipus Rex/Antigone by Sophocles</p>

<p>The Shadow of the Wind was amazing.</p>

<p>Middlesex, Snow Falling on Cedars, Beloved, Life of Pi, Power of One, Empire Falls</p>

<p>Anything by Dickens</p>

<p>The Poisonwood Bible (absolutely amazing)
Catcher in the Rye
I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings</p>

<p>i liked sound of waves too
definitely harry potter!!
Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell
Eragon (but harry potter's better)
anything by John Grisham, try The Firm for starters</p>

<p>Catcher in the Rye...absolutely necessary
The Tunnel- E. Sabato -great book(many south-american writers are really cool btw ;) )
Tales of Mystery and Imagination - Edgar Allan Poe
The wall - Sartre(great short story)</p>

<p>I need to finish Catcher in the Rye. I read like half of it.</p>

<p>The Little Prince.</p>

<p>i think catcher in the rye is not so wonderful... its depressing and... i dunno. i guess kids like it because its an easy read out of all the required High School books</p>

<p>hmm....it's almost obvious you haven't read the other ones in my list.... I think(well maybe besides E. A. Poe) Cathcher in the Rye is the most optimistic so.... :P (but I still like it....tryed reading On the Road....too bulky...read about 3/4 of it but couldn't take it any more....the same thing happening again and again....)</p>
