Gibson - Neuromancer and that series

This reminds me... Check out Altered Carbon by Richard K. Morgan. I never bothered to watch the Netflix adaptation because my memories of the book were so good. Dark, gritty, mind-bending stuff.

Stephen King and fuck anyone who judges me for it - The Shining and Misery

Misery is great. Salem's Lot and Pet Sematary are also great if you want something scary/thrilling. 11/22/63 is a time-travel masterpiece with tons of heart and suspense.

Pynchon - The Crying of Lot 49 - Everyone files Pynchon under postmodern and intricate but I also found this one very funny.

I read this one in college. Much more accessible than Gravity's Rainbow if you want to try Pynchon.

Another cool/weird book I read in college... Remainder by Tom McCarthy. It's about a guy who wins a ton of money and uses it to perfectly recreate a specific moment in his past. He buys an apartment building, hires actors to act as his neighbors, etc.
