If you are looking for books by an author or genre, check out IBList

If you are feeling spunky, add a book or two or some info about a book that is already there.

Anthem by Ayn Rand (a possible glimpse into the future?)

Hope for the Flowers by Trina Paulus (it's a children's story, but every adult should read it AT LEAST once)

The John Carter of Mars series by Edgar Rice Burroughs
(this series is great if you're a sci-fi fan)

The Time Machine by HG Well (The book NOT the movie!!The book is very symbolic and in depth. The movie completely missed the whole point that HG Wells had intended.)

I know '1984' and 'Animal Farm' were already recommended, but I have to recommend them as well. Also, 'A Brave New World' is great!

Has anyone read the "Incarnations of Immortality" series by Piers Anthony? The first one, "On A Pale Horse" is excellent.

And of course Stephen King goes without saying..Most of the stuff I read is non-fiction by a slew of different authors and most of them deal with the things I'm into.

Crime books are interesting as well.
