I almost forgot...

Have a Nice Day by Mick Foley

I'd definitely suggest reading The Alchemist to anyone. It's a pretty short book, very easy read, but very good indeed. It has all sorts of little bits of wisdom and stories that have multiple morals (I'll let you decipher them for yourselves).

Also, even if you've seen the movie(s) both Black Hawk Down and Saving Private Ryan are very good.

I have read The Alchemist, a very intelligent book.

Oh, another recommendation is Cat's Eye, it would just need someone wih a better understanding to read than it would take for someoe to read The Go-between.

I don't know if anybody already suggested it, but I almost forgot:

The His Dark Materials series is SPECTACULAR. They're titles in chronological order are The Golden Compass, The Subtle Knife and [i] The Amber Spyglass.

Very good books. About the same reading level as Harry Potter (though a bit better of a series if I may say so).

Read Animal Farm.

I greatly enjoyed the animorphs series. Probbaly not everyones thang, but still...

Im currently about half way through "The Two Towers". Much better than TFotR, if I do say so myself.

I enjoyed Jurassic Park, if you liked the movie, you'll love the book!

Another great book is 'Het Achterhuis' (probably translated as 'The Backhouse') by Anne Frank. It's the diary of a Jewish girl who had to hide from the Nazis in WWII. It really happened.

The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings of course.
