 | Player Piano by Kurt Vonnegut
Buy new: $10.20 / Used from: $5.00 This book was written 50 or 60 years ago and is so prescient that reading it now you really get to appreciate the author and miss him knowing you will never get another book from him. God Bless Mr. Vonnegut.

 | Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close: A Novel by Jonathan Safran Foer
Buy new: $10.04 / Used from: $4.98 One of the most outstanding books I have read about the aftermath and effects of 9/11. You have no soul if you read this and it doesn't affect you.

 | I Know This Much Is True: A Novel (P.S.) by Wally Lamb
Buy new: $12.23 / Used from: $4.58 Massive book that I have lent out multiple times and always harass people to get it back. I think Vonnegut was right when he said, "Never trust anybody who borrows a book."
