I never tire of telling people what I think they should read.  Now I can do it without anyone telling me to shut up...
(Will be updating this shortly, with mini reviews and the like)
ALL TIME FAVOURITE READS
Harriet The Spy by Louise Fitzugh
Reason For Hope by Jane Goodall
Love Story by Erich Segal
Interpreter of Maladies by Jhumpa Lahiri
PRETTY GOOD, TOO

Griffine and Sabine: A Trilogy by Nick Bantock
Spilling Open by Sabrina Ward Harrison

DELIGHTFUL PRISSY ENGLISH BOOKS
I'll admit it, I have a peculiar affinity for frothy English novels, ones where everyone has high tea at 4 o'clock and lives are neat and tidy.  Probably because that is the polar opposite to mine...

Start with the classics:
Emma, Prde and Prejudice, and Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen
The Importance of Being Ernest by Oscar Wilde

Move on to modern day:

The Shell Seekers by Rosamunde Pilcher
Scarlet Feather and Evening Class by Maeve Binchy
MY FRIEND SHAZ'S SUGGESTIONS
Catcher in the Rye by J. D. Salinger
(How could I forget that?!?!?)

On the Road by Jack Kerouac, which I have not read but have heard fantastic things about...if they ever let me back in the public library, I will definitely take this out.et The Spy by Louise Fitzugh
Reason For Hope by Jane Goodall
