House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski, It's very unusual but it is a great book, it has horror, romance and hints to Greek mythology.

I love those books! I just got finished reading Survivor by Chuck Palahniuk. I'd also recommend reading Fight Club and Choke, also by the same author.

Hmm well if you're into fantasy novels, then I really haven't read as much as I wouldn't like, not to mention, my selections would be rather generic to pointing out - Eragon Series - Pendragon Series - Twilight Series (if you like romance) - Angels and Demons, and the Da Vinci Code Not to mention, a book I really enjoyed was The Medusa Strain, a book about bio-terrorism. I found it very interesting. :)

World War Z sounds interesting, I'll pick that book up soon. I heard the Artemis Fowl series was pretty good, can anyone confirm this? BTW, thanks for the suggestions,

The Dark Tower I - VII and the A Song of Ice & Fire books.

But if you're looking for some fun reading I suggest you check out Death's Head and its sequel Maximum Offense.

That was a good book. I also recommend any book by the author Malcolm Gladwell.

If you like futuristic "cyber-punk" check out pretty much anything by Peter Gibson.

For Fantasy, George R.R. Martin's Song of Fire and Ice series is really awesome.

The Tipping Point - cool social phenomena of how ideas spread virally.

The Shock Doctrine - effects of economic policies on various nations (very intense).

Oh, and The Watchmen is pretty cool - graphic novel.

Gotta say, folks on here have pretty good taste in books, so you're in good hands. :)
