In no particular order:


1) Enders Game - Orson Scott Card

2) Speaker for the Dead - Orson Scott Card

3) The Count of Monte Cristo - Alexander Dumas

4) The Accidental Buddha -

5) Ramses the Damned - Anne Rice

6) Rendezvous with Rama - Arthur C Clarke

7) Childhood's End - Arthur C Clarke

8) Harry Potter & The Half Blood Prince - Rowling

9) Buddha - Deepok Chopra

10) Lord of the Flies - William Golding



This list changes constantly though, but Enders Game, Lord of the Flies, and the Count of Monte Cristo are normally always on it.

Kruistocht In Spijkerbroek by Thea Beckman. It's got a children's crusade.
Pride & Prejudice by Jane Austen. It's got romance and a happy ending.
The Wooden Sea by Jonathan Carroll. It's got aliens and a dog.
Lullaby by Chuck Palahniuk. It's got chain smokers.
Geschiedenis van Amsterdam up to 1578 by a bunch of scholars. It's got pretty maps and digs.
Anything by Roddy Doyle. It's got brilliance and amazing dialogue.
Anything by Garth Nix. It's got magnificent adventures and weird plaeces.
House Of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski. It's got a weird house and people die.
Anything by Virginia Woolf. It's got ways to escape.
Lots of stuff by Shakespeare. It's often very pretty. With swords and stuff.
Hotel New Hamshire by John Irving. It's got a bear.
Roget's Thesaurus by, well, Roget, of course. His first names are Peter Mark. It's got words, actually. Just words.
The Name Of The Rose by Umberto Eco. It's about books. Sorta. But it's got almost everything I love in books.
