What are your five-star books?

The other thread about Calibre ratings had me curious about other people's 5-star books. Most people seem to be using a rating where 5 stars is the highest and they reserve it for their very favourite books. So, which books have you read that you rated 5 stars? Here are some of mine:

INDIE BOOKS (free or DRM-free)

Agent to the Stars by John Scalzi
Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka
The Mouse in the Mountain by Norbert Davis
Nineteen Eighty Four by George Orwell
Overclocked by Cory Doctorow
Redchapel by Mike Resnick
Radium Halos by Shelley Stout
Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte

COMMERCIAL BOOKS (from major publishers and usually DRMd)

Dark Places by Gillian Flynn
Darkly Dreaming Dexter by Jeff Lindsay
The House Next Door by Anne Rivers Siddons
Naked in Death by JD Robb
NurtureShock by Po Bronson and Ashley Merriman (non-fiction)
Just After Sunset by Stephen King
Mistress of the Art of Death by Ariana Franklin
The Memory Keeper's Daughter by Kim Edwards
The Stolen Child by Keith Donohue
