I like books with great well developed characters I can relate to.

Currently I am reading Slaughter House Five and I'd have to say it is my favorite in a long time.

It is a 1969 novel by best-selling author Kurt Vonnegut. One of his most popular works and widely regarded as a classic; it combines science fiction elements with an analysis of the human condition from an uncommon perspective, using time travel as a plot device and the bombing of Dresden in World War II, the aftermath of which Vonnegut witnessed, as a starting point.

When the book was released, the bombing of Dresden was not widely known and was rarely discussed by veterans and historians. The book led to an increased awareness of the bombings and a reevaluation of the justifications given for aerial bombing of cities by the Allies during the war.

Here are some other favorites:

1. The Wold According to Garp by John Irving
2. Fire Starter by Stephen King
3. Mona Lisa Overdrive by William Gibson
4.The Stand by Stephen King
5. Jurassic Park by Michael Cricton
6. The Language of God by Francis S. Collins
7. Everything Is Illuminated by Jonathan Safran Foer
8. Enders Game by Orson Scott Card
9. Blue Beard by Kurt Vonnegut
10. Sideways by Rex Pickett

Time Enough for Love by Robert Heinlein. Most of Heinlein's works explored ideas, but this work reaches for real emotion and successfully portrays the drama of a man who, like all of us, spends his life struggling to cope with natural laws, whether physical, social or economic. The resolutions of the characters' assorted scientific problems seems realistic, and, unlike so many other works in science fiction, the reader can picture someone taking these exact steps. More importantly, though, this book may be the one time Heinlein wrote his own voice into his works, and the portrayal of a very old and wizenned man is moving for its unflinching but unaffected realism, and also offers Heinlein fans a real look into the mind of that thinker.
