I'm compiling my own list, because I don't like a lot of them on "1000 Books you must read before you die".
 All I have so far:
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (currently reading) To Kill a Mockingbird (again, it's been so long it doesn't count) Dracula The Fountainhead An Unquiet Mind The Road

Tuesdays With Morrie. It's a short read and really good.

The Secret Life of Bees!
I personally love Gone With The Wind, but I know there are plenty of people who don't like it. |

I just bought The Road. I'm going to start it after I finish The Memory Keeper's Daughter (that one is dragging.).

I just bought To Kill A Mockingbird, but you already have that.
Great Expectations The Great Gatsby Black Like Me Night The Scarlet Letter And if you can understand him, Shakespeare is really great stuff. My favorites are "Twelfth Night" and "Much Ado About Nothing" |

I have read The Great Gatsby and Black Like Me, and loved them both.
 I read and despised The Scarlet Letter. And I do love Shakespeare...I've never
read either of those plays, though. My favorite is Hamlet, because I'm a weirdo.

Anything by Maya Angelou. She's the bomb.

I like Maya Angelou's autobiographical series. For some reason I can't remember the name of the first one right now. I let my friend borrow it so I
can't look.

A father and son trying to survive in a post apocalyptic world. It's really good. They're making it into a movie with Viggo Mortenson.
