I know I must be missing some, but these are all that I can think of at the moment.

Fiction:

Collected Fictions by Jorge Luis Borges

The Stranger by Albert Camus

The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay by Michael Chabon

White Noise by Don Delilo

A Visit from the Goon Squad by Jennifer Egan

The Waste Land by T. S. Eliot

Everything that Rises Must Converge by Flannery O'Connor

His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman

The Crying of Lot 49 by Thomas Pynchon

Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson

Brief Interviews with Hideous Men by DFW

Infinite Jest by DFW

Of these, you can't go wrong with Infinite Jest and the Collected Fictions of Borges. His Dark Materials is an easy and classic read, probably the lightest fare on this list.

Non-Fiction:

The Music of the Primes by Marcus du Sautoy

Chaos by James Gleick

How to be Gay by David Halperin

Barrel Fever by David Sedaris

Let's Explore Diabetes with Owls by David Sedaris

Secret Historian by Justin Spring

Of these, Secret Historian was definitely the most interesting, though How to be Gay was a good intro to queer theory.

I just finished David Sedaris' newest book, Let's Explore Diabetes with Owls. I loved it, but creative non-fiction is super addictive to me right now. I'm currently reading an exceptionally good book that I got when was free, called 36 Twisted Tales. There's a fair amount of grammatical errors, but hell, it was free!

I think I'm going to start World War Z next, but I also have the Game of Thrones waiting to be read... and a backlog of like 20 games to play. Being unemployed is so exhausting. ;) I constantly have that post-reading stuffed-full-of-knowledge feeling!

Who's got book recommendations? Here are mine:

  • I recently read Today is the Last Day of the Rest of Your Life by Ulli Lust and it was AMAZING! It's a graphic novel/memoir (which there seem to be a lot of lately and I love it because it combines two of my favorite things) about the author's time as a young adult traveling around Italy in the 80s. It starts with her and her friend turning tricks to raise money for the trip and gets crazier from there. A lot of it was about her dealing with the fact that men are only interested in her to sleep with her, and her disillusionment with the punk/runaway society she makes herself part of.
  • I also read Let's Explore Diabetes with Owls, David Sedaris's new book, and it was good. I laughed. BUT it didn't recapture the hilarity I felt reading Me Talk Pretty One Day or Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim. But still, I recommend it if you like Sedaris.
  • And I just started reading The Feminine Mystique but I haven't gotten into the actual book yet because there are like 4 introductions. I'm excited to read it, though.

I would love to have this book used! It is supposed to be a fantastic read!

I just finished Let's Explore Diabetes with Owls, but anything my David Sedaris is AMAZING. My favorite book of his thus far is Me Talk Pretty One Day.
