OK, I'll play. Here are my all time favorites, in no particular order:
Grapes of Wrath - John Steinbeck
Catcher in the Rye - J.D. Salinger
The Stand - Stephen King
In Cold Blood - Truman Capote
The Bible
If you leave off The Bible (to me that is a given), then I would include The Foundation Trilogy - Isaac Asimov.
