GRAHAM GREENE!!! Yes, how very cool. My favorite favorite Graham Greene book - by far and away his best - is
The Power and the Glory. Very cool book.
Also, here's some of my other all-time favorites. Note that I'm excluding nonfiction from this list, because nonfiction books can be fascinating for all kinds of reasons that have nothing to do with the quality of the writing
Lord of the Rings(THE SINGLE MOST AWESOME NOVEL OF ALL TIME)
1984
Ender's Game
The Time Machine
The Island of Dr. Moreau
For Whom the Bell Tolls (only thing by Hemingway I really like)
Somerset Maugham's short stories
and probably lots of others I can't think of right now, darn it...maybe I'll be back later
