Kill Kill, Faster Faster. It's a crime book written in a sort of New York rap prose. Very modern. Very original. Extremely brilliant. It's by an American writer called Joel Rose....Also Angels by Denis Johnson. He wrote the book the film Jesus Son was based on starring Samantha Morton and Billy Crudup. He's recognised by the literary underground as an absolute master. Seek him out. I think he's something of a genius.

The Memory Room by Mary Rakow
The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger
and The Interpreter of Maladies by Jhumpa Lahiri

and of course, A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle

and if you like detective books, The Beekeepers Apprentice by Laurie R. King is pretty good too (and its a series = more books!)

Dan Brown - Angels & Demons, DaVinci Code and others as well.

Any JD Robb - In Death novels

I enjoyed the CS Lewis series of the Chronicles of Narnia, even as an adult.

Laurell K. Hamilton - Anita Blake vampire hunter novels

Elizabeth Peters - Amelila Peabody novels

I love series' books - just about anything that has more than two books in the series - Patricia Cornwell, Janet Evanovich (Stephanie Plum), Kathy Reichs, John Patterson (Women's Murder Club).

Good luck finding something you enjoy.
