Gone With the Wind. I read it every 4 years. It makes me feel like, no matter what, I can do anything.

I reccomend all titles by Ann Rinaldi
Eragon, Eldest- Christopher Paolini
Harry Potter (of course)
The Chronicles of Narnia- C.S. Lewis
Jane Austen (all books by her as well)
The Princess Diaries Series- Meg Cabot
The Mediator- Meg Cabot
A Great and Terrible Beauty, Rebel Angels- Libba Bray
Bloody Jack Books- L.A. Meyer
Treasure Island- Robert Louis Stevenson
Young Jack Sparrow Series
White Fang, Call of the Wild- Jack London
Hatchet
To Kill a Mockingbird- Harper Lee
The Taming of a Shrew, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Mark Antony, Twelfth Night, Romeo and Juliet- Shakespeare
Hope these helped.
Note: If you hate reading Shakespeare in Old English, you should check out Sparknotes. They have downloadable texts for almost all of his plays that have a modern text version alongside the Old English version under the No Fear Shakespeare section

'The Pact: A Love Story' by Jodi Picoult
'The Great Gatsby' by F. Scott Fitzgerald
'Slaughterhouse-Five' by Kurt Vonnegut
'The Catcher in the Rye' by J.D. Salinger
'Gone With the Wind' by Margaret Mitchell
'Their Eyes Were Watching God' by Zora Neale Hurston
That is just a list of great american novels.. to me.
Here are some great books that I love, maybe not necessarily novels.
'Always Six O'Clock' by Phoef Sutton
'Killing Me Softly' by Nicci French (a little explicit at times, but REALLY REALLY REALLY good.)
'At First Sight' by Nicholas Sparks (I suggest you read 'True Believer' by Nicholas Sparsk first considering At First Sight is a continuation.)
'the five people you meet in heaven' by Mitch Albom.
Have fun! All these books are worthy of your reading =)

"Prey", by Michael Crichton. He's the one who wrote the Jurassic Park novels. This one is a great techno-thriller and he explains the science so you can understand it well!
