I suppose my all-time favorite would have to be "Writing Down the Bones" by Natalie Goldberg, if you are judging just by how often it gets read! I love to write, and this book always inspires me when I have a bad case of writer's block. It makes me feel like other's understand what I go through and why I need to write.
Other books that are near the top of the list are Catcher in the Rye, 1984, The Hobbit, and A People's History of the United States.

If you biographies, search for Shrii Shrii Anandamurtiji.
Or books by Ananda Marga Publications.

A great historical story , romance, drama,intrigue, sex, the whole bag of tricks, is "Through a Glass Darkly" It's sequel is "Now Face To Face".
Excellent read!! I've re-read them both several times over the years.

Mutant Message From Down Under, by Marla Morgan...Not so much because whether or not I beleive she traveled with the Aboriginese, but for the Abolriginal philosophies.

Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts
its a great fictional story based on facts, and written by a man who was an escaped convict from Australia to Mumbai, India, this is his story while he was in India. Just Great

Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides - a modern epic, a fascinating read of three generations, and a wonderful narrative of oft-taboo subjects. It's just enchanting.

I have sooo many favorite book that I can't choose. There are so many good ones out there and I don't think I would do them justice if I just picked one favorite.
