Thomas Harris' Silence of the Lambs was a great one.
One of the few that actually was made into a good movie -
I thought Jurassic Park was badass

I also found Dean Koontz to be much more fun to read than Stephen King in that category.
I like to read biographies, autobiographies, and personal accounts mostly.
These two are memorable;

I’m sorry, but Catch 22 is a massive piece of shit. The larger theme is ruined by the incessant puns. It basically reads like a Dr Seuss book without the trippy illustrations crossed with some Marx Brothers camp. This is like Dexter for me; everyone else seems to love it, and I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. But that’s just me.

It's just a lame joke. You're kind of an odd duck, so it would make sense you read The Hardy Boys.PurpleJ said:

Had to read that shit for AP English my junior year. No one bothered to tell us that the first part was the perspective of a full blown retard and that shit would actually make sense later on. I. Could. Not. Read. It. Tried to push through a number of times, finally gave up. Only time I ever bought Cliffs Notes. Passed the test with an A. Never went back and actually read it.89ute said:

Ahh. Now is when you go back and reread it. 1st time through for me I had the same reaction. after the end of the 2nd reading it dawned on me what the fuck was going on. Third read is where the magic happens.HillsboroDuck said:

It’s fine if you like it.

Shame on all the HHB book club alumni that are here and not a single mention of Blood Meridian. -
