I really like "A Heartbreakeing Work Of Staggering Genius" and "You Shall Know Our Velocity" by Dave Eggers. and for a good fiction novel you can't go wrong with Dan Brown, James Patterson, or Ted Bell.

Good Omens by Terry Prachett/Neil Goodman
wittiest book ever

or i recommend Watchmen by Alan Moore, it's a comic book about superheroes, but superheroes who rape each other and are living in poverty. JOY!

Lullaby was awesome! Definitely check out Invisible Monster or Survivor if you haven't already.

film version of Fight Club was better than the book though IMO.

I thought lullaby was pretty lame... Choke is the best of his i think. Survivor was good too. Oh yeah and some of the short Haunted stories were really good (but some were trash). Either way I think he gets more fame than he deserves.

i thought lullaby was one of his weakest books easily. Survivor was my fav hands down.
i thought fight club the book and the movie were exactly the same, like word for word...so to say one was better than the other doesn't make much sense to me

As for my favorites:
Into the Wild
Wind up bird chronicles
Sputnik Sweetheart
1984
and a couple of marketing books
