Also Sophie's World, but, again, that isn't for everyone!
The Scar is complete and utter shit, totally boring tripe. Or at least that's what I would have said if I stopped at 100 pages in. The quality of that book curves up amazingly quickly, going from dull to amazing in fairly short order.

I would also recommend Fahrenheit 451.
