What kinds of fiction?
I could probably list books til I pass out in sci-fi and fantasy.

Non-fiction...well...all gun owners should read 'The Federalist Papers'.

One of the funniest books that I have ever read was Ball Four by Jim Bouten. My father turned me onto it. That was one of the very few that made me laugh out loud while I was reading it.
