My book choices? The Outsider by Albert Camus, To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck, anything at all by Irvine Welsh, anything at all by Franz Kafka, Beloved by Toni Morrison... there is a huge list, but then i am supposed to be an english student. :P

Really enjoy reading books on language, punctuation and grammar. Lynne Truss's Eats, Shoots and Leaves, also John Humphrys' Lost for Words are really funny.
ABSOLUTELY LOVED the DaVinci Code and can't wait for the movie.
