• Animal Farm, George Orwell
• Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret, Judy Blume

Quite a few others on the list are books that I mean to read someday, but probably won't. All in all a pretty good list -- they weren't afraid to include SF and fantasy, and there's one graphic novel, so it doesn't suffer from academitis. Of the books I read, the only one I didn't much like was Are you There God? It's Me, Margaret. I remember liking The Crying of Lot 49, but don't remember a single other thing about it. All other books are really good books that I like a lot. So. Yay, books.
