Down these Mean Streets (my 2nd fav book)
The Alienist (my fav book)
The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay
Jurassic Park (the book is diff from the movie in so many ways)
Into the Wild
Black Boy (reading it for a pluralism class at school now, good read, get to see how African-Americansdelt with racism in the south just one generation afterbeing freed)
The Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings Trilogy because there's lots of stuff that the movies omitted

That's all I can think of off the top of my head.
