Good Omens - Neil Gaiman/Terry Prachett</p>

<p>Oh, Good Omens was great. If you liked that book, you might like another, titled Lamb by Christopher Moore (I'm pretty sure that's the author). I read both books at around the same time, and they're inexplicably linked to each other in my mind.</p>

The Rule of Four by Ian Caldwell and Dustin Thomason
Burridge Unbound by Alan Cumyn
A Place of Execution by Val McDermid

<p>The Trial - Franz Kafka
Brave New World - Aldous Huxley
Catch-22 - Joseph Heller
The Myth of Sisyphus - Albert Camus

<p>I started Catch 22... but i havent been able to finish it just yet...
Animal Farm is awful</p>

<p>and yes Im reading Fabric of the Cosmos. It has a wonderful intro.</p>

<p>I haven't read The fabric of the Cosmos, but according to l4n1, who says "shazam" and rhymes with great pleasure and prides in being very Filipino, it is apparently very enthralling.</p>

<p>absolutely fabulous s26r62</p>

<p>I love the concept behind Ender's Game and battle school</p>

<p>Ive read his entire saga from Enders Game to Children of the Mind... when I read the last book I felt at a lost cause it was over (sort of).</p>

<p>mmm, and any Terry Pratchett book is drop dead funny!</p>

<p>But Pride and Prejudice is probably my favorite book ever.
THere's also this fantasy series that I'm kinda embarressed ro admit I love, the Belgariad by David Eddings</p>
