Dangerous Angels by Francesca Lia Block (it's actually a compilation of a series of books, but works as one); technically it's young adult fiction without genre, but I'd call it somewhat fantastical.
And, of course, The Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley; absolute fantasy and re-working of the Arthurian myth in a way I've never seen done before.
They are both beautiful books I continue to look back on and love to flip through.

Non fiction
"Real Magic - Creating Miracles In Everyday Life"
By Dr. Wayne W. Dyer
This is a great book for self improvement through positive thinking and meditation. It changed my life...)(

Ernest Hemingway's 'A Moveable Feast.'
It's a memoir of his early 20's in Paris.
oksana_rossi:
Gabriel Garcia Marquez writes Magical Realism. Magical Realism was first used to describe an artistic style, but came to describe work of certain Latin American writers.
Fantastic Realism is a artistic style. There is a Viennese school of art formed in the 40's that is the base for Fantastic Realism.
(I agree, Gabriel Garcia Marquez is an amazing writer.)

In my youth, I really liked John Steinbeck in his "Travels with Charlie" and "Grapes of Wrath", and then, later, I added "Walden", sometimes known as Walden Pond by Henry David Thoreau, and then, the more I read, the more times I found some really great books, but those are my all time favorites. God Bless you.

Douglas Adams--Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
My dad read it when he was my age and I picked up his old copy. I love Adams' sense of humor and all of his books. The movie stunk though.
Science fiction.
