A Wizard of Earthsea was one of the first fantasy books I read, and I've reread it and the others several times. Tombs of Atuan especially sticks in the mind -- the images of a young girl exploring a huge labyrinth in darkness, having lots of power in theory as high priestess, but in practice being dependent on the older priestesses, and not knowing who to trust.

I also remember reading the Word for World is Forest and (vaguely) The Left Hand of Darkness as a teenager. I think it's time for some rereading.
