Fight Club
Author: Chuck Palahniuk
I personally prefer the book, its one of the only books I read in 3 days because it was that gripping, the writing style is fast funny and off the walls and it is and absolute life changer, a must read for everyone especially men.
A Clockwork Orange
Author: Anthony Burgess
Terrifying and possibly insane, this novel about the future is extremely hard to read with the use of its nadsat language, but when you learn the laungage, its all the more worth it.
The Catcher In The Rye
Author: JD Salinger
I don't recommend it for everyone, but, as a teen in a confusing time in their life, its extremely effective and sad. My life was definitely changed by this novel, but you have to be in the right mindset and know the history before reading, it makes it more effective and helps you understand a lot of context.
Jam
Author: Yahtzee Croshaw
A very interesting book, while slightly cliched its a fun adventure that subverts a lot of tropes, read it especially if you're a fan of Yahtzees other works.
A Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time
Author: Mark Haddon
One of the most interesting books of all time and a must read for those interested in autism, the play is also excellent.

Escape From Camp 14
Non-Fiction (Debatable, since some parts of the story were revised in 2015)
Author: Blaine Harden

The story of Shin Dong-hyuk, who was born under the name Shin In Geun in Camp 14, one of North Korea's infamous labor camps. It's a topic I don't see talked about to often when North Korea is brought up, so I'd like to recommend it for folks so they can get an even better idea as to what happens to dissidents in North Korea.

Sure, the title sorta spoils what happens, but the real story is what happens before, during, and after his escape. I can guarantee it'll make you want to read more. But I should warn you, this story is probably not for the faint of heart.
