- The Great Gatsby- A classic (coming as a movie starting Leonardo DiCaprio soon)
- The Adventures of Huck Fin- not bad. a bit old though
- Sense and Sensibility- not by choice- we had to read it in university
- Catch 22- Awesome book by Heller
- The Count of Monte Cristo- a great read. One of my friends' favourite book!
- Heart of Darkness- Read it in high school. A good read. This is the basis for the movie Apocalypse Now.
- 1984- another great read
- the curious incident of the dog in the nighttime- bought this one from Itunes
- the Pillars of the Earth- !!!
- Hitchhiker's Guide... read the whole series. Enjoyably entertaining
- House of the Scorpion- Josh's favourite character is in this one
- Into Thin Air- climbing + suspense = good
- Freakonomics- yes, I've even read some Non Fiction on this list!! Loved the stuff about drug dealers in this book. Also about naming of people's kids (see next blog post for more on this)
- Tipping Point- This reminds me to add Gladwell to my list of people that I'd like to meet)
