Books you Should definitely Read

The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test

Bonfire of the Vanities

Tuesdays with Morrie

if I think of more, I'll get back with you
 
The colombine biography. The author interviews the first responders and kids that were there when it all happened and there's a lot of things the news tells you that isn't true and also there's things that they don't tell you that will blow your mind. Read it.

for some reason, your seemingly random use of capital letters in the thread title really pissed me off
 
so good, it was the first Sci-fi book that really got me hooked. I think I finished it in 2 days :P
 
yeah, according to wikipedia this is the order:

Ender's Game (1985)

Xenocide (1991)

Children of the Mind

Ender's Shadow (1999)

Shadow of the Hegemon (2001)

Shadow Puppets (2002)

First Meetings (2002) (perhaps not a part of the series, so to speak)

Shadow of the Giant (2005)

A War of Gifts: An Ender Story (2007)

Ender in Exile (2008)

Shadows in Flight (2012)

Shadows Alive (forthcoming, originally planned as part of "Shadows in Flight")

Earth Unaware (forthcoming, prequel planned for July 17th, 2012)

I have only read up to Ender's Shadow though
 
harry potter....

=) but really if you want quality life improving info that will make you feel smart read anything by malcolm gladwell.. and if you want just an awesome read.. jonathon safron foer-- extremely loud and incredibly close. and if you want your brain to explode.. read tom robbins.
 
check some of these guys out if you haven't already.

Hunter S. Thompson

Kurt Vonnegut

Aldous Huxley

Malcom Gladwell

Alan Ginsberg

Tom Wolfe

William S. Burroughs

i doubt you will be disapointed
 
good list, ive read at least one by each of these guys besides vonnegut, if you are into poety/beat history at all alan ginsberg has some absolutely ridiculously well written stuff
 
Try just reading Enders Game, I found that it was able to work very well as a standalone book, the rest of the series is more if you're interested in learning more.
 
Don't Know if been said, but...

Brother's Karamazov (Really Long Though)

Catcher in the Rye

Catch 22

Freedom

One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest
 
Yah I only read up to Shadow of the Hegemon and all you really need to bother reading is Ender's Game cause its OG badass and Ender's Shadow because Bean is badass as fuck
