These are a few of my favorite books

The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger
The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood
Pride and Prejudice (I keep hearing that liking Jane Austen is a requirement of librarianship. I guess I'm alright, then.)
Cruddy by Lynda Barry
If On A Winter's Night a Traveler by Italo Calvino
A Trip to the Stars by Nicholas Christopher
Orientalism by Edward Said
House of Leaves by Mark Danielewski
White Teeth by Zadie Smith
Howard's End by E.M. Forster
Against Love by Laura Kipnis
City of Quartz by Mike Davis
Harry Potter, of course
Tess of the D'Urbervilles (I never thought I would like Thomas Hardy, but this book just moved me more than I ever expected."
nearly anything by John Irving
The Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan
Guns, Germs, and Steel by Jared Diamond
Manufacturing Consent by Noam Chomsky
History of Sexuality: Part One by Michel Foucault

This list could go on about forever, so I suppose now is a good enough time to stop. What are some of your favorites? I love suggestions.

I'm a devotee of Library Thing. I'm in the midst of adding all of the 500+ books I own to my online catalog. It's too neat for words.
