I really enjoyed The Prestige. Not really for the actual content of the book, but it just made me trust in Christopher Nolan's skills even more so that he was able to take a pretty good book, and then meld it into an amazing movie. The end though, I was disappointed by (In the book)
I'm really enjoying As I Lay Dying. Same with The Contortionists' Handbook.
Oli:
I don't have a list as such but books that I have recently bought and intend on reading at some point soon are:
The beach - Alex Garland(Which I am in the middle of)
The Acid House - Irvine Welsh
Whit and Song of Stone - Iain Banks
Catch-22 - Joseph Heller (This is a popular one)
Once I have finished them I will crack on with any other books I've picked up in charity shops (that is where I get most of my books. I only use amazon/a proper book shop if I have a specific book in mind)
I've been getting pretty lax with my reading lately. I go through spots of reading for hours a day and then not reading for days. It's very annoying.

It's a fantastic book. Might I recommend that once you start this book, eliminate all other reading materials from your daily existence until you've finished. Trust me, House Of Leaves is an utter and absolute mindfuck of a book, and you have to try to keep track of a thousand things at once as it is...it gets too confusing when you're also trying to keep other information from other books straight in your head.

Don't worry, I only read multiple books at once if I've read them before.
