Jeff Lemire's Essex County trilogy is an absolute must for anyone who loves Blankets. It's a totally different story but strikes a similar tone.
I've just finished Go ask Alice, it is pretty great :)
Geisha: A life by Mineko Iwasaki, is also one of my favorite book...
If you like comics and graphic novels, read The league of extraordinary gentlemen, Watchmen, The crow, Essex county a book about the rural lifestyle, hockey and family issues...
All of those are books I really loved and hope you will like if you read them :)
we have very similar tastes. check some of these out... the first 2 would be great ones to ask for, since they are a little pricier.
Criminal- Deluxe Edition
Essex County
Hellboy - Vol. 1
DMZ - Vol. 1
Thats a guy!
If you haven't already read it, I highly recommend this.
I came here to suggest "Blankets" as well. Here's the Amazon link:

I would also HIGHLY recommend "Essex County" by Jeff Lemire:
"In Essex County, Lemire crafts an intimate study of one community through the years, and a tender meditation on family, memory, grief, secrets, and reconciliation. With the lush, expressive inking of a young artist at the height of his powers, Lemire draws us in and sets us free."
Kind of an odd intertwined story about a bunch of people from a rural area in Canada. Its much better than it sounds. Also, if you're into hockey, the second part of the book may end up being your favorite comic of all time. Sweet Tooth is by no means bad and I would recommend it, but Essex County is better and cheaper.
