An excellent writer on SNL, also.
Some of my favorites, most of these are huge novel types that I read back in high school. That, and I have a bad tendency to get hooked on a writer to the point where I must read all of their books (comparing writing styles, use of character metaphor, etc.). No particular order.
Nine Stories J. D. Salinger
I Know This Much Is True and
She's Come Undone by Wally Lamb
Animal Farm by George Orwell (I could read this book over and over.)
Doctors,
Love Story,
Oliver's Story,
Acts of Faith, etc. by Erich Segal
Courting A Monk by Katherine Min
On Love,
How Proust Can Change Your Life, etc. by Alain De Botton
Lots of D. H. Lawrence, Aldous Huxley, Salinger, Bradbury, etc. also. I'm an English major, it's not like I have anything else to do.
