Oh, hey, for whatever reason I swore I had read Mythologies in the original post. I'll second Camera Lucida, and remove my Mythologies vote, as I'd rather read some Barthes I haven't looked at before.
JD:
One more nomination: The Professor and The Madman.
It's been out for 12 years yet I can't fin anyone who has read it. :[
october1983:
I'll throw my vote behind any Vonnegut on account of the fact that there is basically no excuse for me having read nothing of his ever.

Was going to just quote this until I saw this:

So, yeah, Vonnegut. Whoo!
Inlander:
I'm going to take those as being nominations for the two Vonnegut books suggested so far, Cat's Cradle and Slaughterhouse 5; however I'm going to use my executive powers to rule out Slaughterhouse 5 because (A) that's the book we did when we tried this over on Aurostion, and (B) I've already read it twice and even though it's an amazing book I wouldn't mind reading something new. So, with all that in mind the three brackets filled so far are:
Sula, by Toni Morrison
The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, by Stieg Larsson
Cat's Cradle, by Kurt Vonnegut
Three to go, then it's voting time!
