1C Mantle
Anatomically Correct


Philip Roth - Sabbath's Theater (general fiction, real asshole living his life. Funny!)
2Hexalyne
Scillocsenports


Donna Tart - The Secret History (mystery, i guess. I spent a long time thinking about this book and it's oddly addictive, seductive darkness. Definitely one for a book club or buddy read, if people still do those.)
3Autechre
Draft 7.30


Alfred Doblin - Berlin Alexanderplatz (historical fiction, yet another asshole living life. Also, funny!)
4Hexalyne / Lain
Evel 46


John Fowles - The Magus (historical fiction + the twilight zone)
5Jon Hopkins
Singularity


Agatha Christie - And Then There Were None (mystery, duh. Classic. I'm a sucker for locked room mystery books. Know any good ones?)
6Various Artists (Electronic)
Exhibit A


Sergio de la Pava - A Naked Singularity (Infinite Jest-core, kinda. Dope.)
7Joris Voorn
Balance 014


James Islington - The Will of the Many (Best sci-fi/fantasy I've read in a long time. In a few years, this book and its sequel should be HUGE. So good. Sequel out next year, The Strength of the Few.)
8o9
Church of the Ghetto PC


Anthony Ryan - The Traitor (Epic fantasy. The concluding novel in his Covenant of Steel books. Highly recommended. I couldnt put it down and read six hours straight one day.)
9Lynyn
Lexicon


Thomas Pynchon - V (yeah, the guy that did Gravity's Rainbow. This is his debut and its kinda like Gravity's Rainbow-lite. Less difficult for me, yet still a challenge and more enjoyable. Still totally Pynchon. Also, Thrice's Vheissu was named after this story's fictional location (or something) of the same name.)
10Various Artists (Electronic)
Six Circuits


Oscar Wilde - The Picture of Dorian Gray (Why wasn't I made to read this in high school/college?)
11exm
llmnt


Jonathan Franzen - The Corrections (some people hate the hell out of this guy, but all I see is an amazing writer. His narration and character descriptions via their internal monologues and thoughts is second to none, imo. Most recent book Crossroads is fantastic too!)
12Locust Toybox
Noon


Italo Calvino - If On A Winter's Night, A Traveler (METAfiction. But well done, maybe best anyone has tried.)
