- To Kill a Mockingbird
- The Harry Potter series
- The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (much better than Tom Sawyer, Markio. Read it if you haven't already)
- His Dark Materials Trilogy (The Golden Compass, The Subtle Knife, and The Amber Spyglass) <-- Last one was the only book to make me cry. Of course, it helps to read the first two.
- Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
- Through the Looking Glass (This and the previous one are my two all-time favorites)
Favorites When I was Younger:
- Goosebumps series
- Rohald Dahl's books (Especially Matilda, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and Charlie and the Great-Glass Elevator)
- The Phantom Tollbooth
I'm looking forward to reading these X-mas gifts:
- The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
- Eragon

-Lord Foul's Bane
-The Illearth War
-The Power That Preserves
The Second Chronicles of Thomas Covenant
-The Wounded Land
-The One Tree
-White Gold Wielder
Those six are currently my favorite books. But of course, there are such classics as To Kill a Mocking Bird that need to be mentioned.

Now that you mention it, Chup, the Thrawn books where awesome, almost better than the original movie trilogy.
The first Hitchhiker's book was cool, after that the trilogy got kind of boring.
As for serious "literature," I liked 1984 (though it was incredibly depressing) and Slaughterhouse Five.
Oh, and I simply LOVED Super Luigi. All five volumes.

1984, George Orwell
Brave Story, Miyuki Miyabe (translated by Alexander O. Smith)
Coraline, Neil Gaiman
Feed, M.T. Anderson
Lies My Teacher Told Me, James Loewen
After, Francine Prose
Brave New World, Aldous Huxley
Daemon, Daniel Suarez
Scott Pilgrim (series), Bryan Lee O'Malley
Harry Potter (series), J.K. Rowling
Also, I haven't decided yet if House of Leaves is one of my favorite books yet. It certainly left quite the impression on me, though (ditto with The Raw Shark Texts). In any case, I just couldn't finish Only Revolutions, and that's rare.

Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand.
I started reading this the other day. I'm actually enjoying it despite my liberal leanings (perhaps because it's a dystopian novel?). I'm particularly drawn to the character of Dagny Taggart because of her "don't give me this bull[dukar]" mentality.
