Well, I'm three weeks into being 20. I love comedies, and one of the funniest books I've read is "Shopaholic and Baby" by Sophie Kinsella, which came out earlier this year and it's a part of the Shopaholic series. She also has a few older books called, "The Undomestic Goddess," and another called, "Can You Keep a Secret?" These books are hilarious, I laughed so hard I cried.

Cormac Mc Carthy's The Road - Pulitzer Prize winner. A book you will never forget.
Water for Elephants. A touching, sad, funny and wonderful story.
Im not sure if The Fig Eater was a 2006 or 2007. Wonderful, richly detailed story of turn of the century Vienna loosely based on Freud's famous patient Dora. Amazing detail.
The Earth My Butt and Other Big Round Things - very uplifting story of a young girl in a dysfunctional family who finds herself. Won a ton of Young Adult awards.
Stephen Colbert's I Am America (And So Can You) - I laughed my butt off. (Love that guy!)
I have read so many books I cannot remember them all.
----
They're, Their, There - Three Different Words.
Careful or you may wind up in my next novel.

Try Tim Dorsey; he writes very funny adventures of a serial killer/psychopath name Serge A. Storms. I doubt there is any other story where the hero rents a hotel room and converts it into the world's largest speaker-just to kill somebody who owns an annoying car stereo. The series also doubles as a travelogue of Florida (the one thing Serge really loves). The best one so far is "Cadilac Beach." The series is 90% fun and only gets dark when the sun goes down.
Warning: the books contain lots of foul language, violence, sex and drug use; but it is okay for adults to read and laugh.

Ghostwalk / Rebecca Stott - mystery
The Choice / Nicholas Sparks - sad at some parts but uplifting

I agree with the other responses, the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer (Twilight, New Moon and Eclipse). I just posted about what to read next, it's going to be hard to find something that's just as good and that I love just as much as that series! Oh, by the way I'm 26 (about to be 27, female and I work at Borders, yes the bookstore).
