15 books

Have been seeing this on facebook, and had an instant craving to partake. Probably because I'm in the midst of cleaning/unpacking/packing.

Rules: Don't take too long to think about it. Choose fifteen books you've read that will always stick with you - the first fifteen you can recall in no more than 15 minutes.

The Catcher in the Rye by JD Salinger
The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien
The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay by Michael Chabon
The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
The End of Faith by Sam Harris
Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut
As I Lay Dying by William Faulkner
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest by Ken Kesey
The Heart is a Lonely Hunter by Carson McCullers
Girl, Interrupted by Susana Kaysen
Song of Solomon by Toni Morrison
Pale Fire by Vladamir Nabokov
Lolita by Vladamir Nabokov
The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath
Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll

EDIT: HAMLET!

my students in high school got me to read The Perks of Being a Wallflower--good book! I remember laughing at a line that went something like "commercials make me want to kill myself"--me too!

That book cracks me up every time I read it. The commercial line is one of the most memorable!
