I have recently been in my own renaissance so to speak. I was hoping to get some good books recommended to Me. I don't like sci fi or anything about magic or anything along those lines.
Maybe something political or classic? Thanks Also In before "tom clancy lulz" |

Hunter S. Thompson - Hell's Angels: A Strange and Terrible Saga
Kurt Vonnegut - Slaughterhouse-Five Jack Kerouac - On the Road Kurt Vonnegut is my favorite author. Slaughterhouse-Five is pretty easy to read too. |

Anything from H.P. Lovecraft, there are a lot of books filled with his short stories if you are into horror.

"For Whom The Bell Tolls" was great. Animal Farm or 1984... Farenheit 451... If you're really up for some slogging, War and Peace is great. Dune was a fun read. Michael Chrichton has a new one out recently, 'Next'. That was a good one too. Actually, anything by Michael Crichton. I've got rather a lot of books, but I'm mostly into non fiction recently. |

Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
Kurt Vonnegut - anything..Cat's Cradle, Slaughterhouse Five, Breakfast of Champsions,etc...I've read them all and they're all impressive. Bhagavad Gita has probably changed my life the most. Anything by Hermann Hesse, specifically Siddhartha. Steppenwolf is also very good, albeit weird. Edited by obnoxious - 18 March 2008 at 9:47pm |

I Am Legend by Richard Matheson.
Completely different than the movie. The movie was great but it botched the ending and the ending didn't stay true to the book at all. Fantastic book, just pretty short. They throw in some extra short horror stories to double the length of the book but I was still disappointed with the length. Fantastic read, definately worth the $10 I spent. |
