My favorite book is Dave Eggers' A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius. I haven't been able to go back to it since I first read it, but the laughter--and the pain-- I experienced was significant.
Currently I'm reading American Sphinx, about the true nature of Thomas Jefferson. But I have to get back into the swing of it-- my reading deprivation pulled me out and I'll need to snuggle up with it again.
Ooh, ooh, Time Traveler's Wife is another I'd recommend.
