Hemingway seems to be pretty popular. A Farewell To Arms was the best book I read junior year of high school. Great book.

Each of you - beside LOW SPARK - REALLY need to broaden your horizons. I mean fucking FOR WHO THE BELL TOLLS? SEMPER FI? Bleah.
House Of Leaves - Danielewski
The Invisibles - Grant Morrison
Watchmen - Alan Moore
Ulysees - James Joyce
East Of Eden - Steinbeck (anyone who says this isn't his best work is on crack)
Anything by Toni Morrison ESPECIALLY BELOVED - if you want a story on how racial injustice can scar you...read that book, or THE BLUEST EYES.
