The Magus The Magus is probably my all-time favorite novel. I read it first at 17, later at 22 and have just ordered this paperback so I won't ruin my first edition with
A Game of Thrones (A Song of Ice and Fire, Book 1)
A Clash of Kings (A Song of Ice and Fire, Book 2)
A Storm of Swords (A Song of Ice and Fire, Book 3)
A Feast for Crows (A Song of Ice and Fire, Book 4) Buy all four of these books now, spend a week reading all four (cause I guarantee you won't put them down) and then wait impatiently with the rest of us for Mar
Assassin's Apprentice (The Farseer Trilogy, Book 1)
Royal Assassin (The Farseer Trilogy, Book 2)
Assassin's Quest (Farseer/Robin Hobb) Now that you have the 'fantasy' bug from reading Martin, read through this set. It's not as exciting, but I definitely loved it.
Couch Potato Kids: Teaching Kids to Turn Off the TV and Tune in to Fun (Effective Parenting Books Series) I picked this book up super cheap on Amazon a couple years ago, great ideas for interaction without t.v. and video games (although we still play a lot of Wii!)
Erotic Works of D.H. Lawrence I know what you're thinking, but Lawrence is really an excellent and thoughtful descriptor. You won't be disappointed!
The Descent I absolutely positively loved this book. LOVED IT. It's original, thrilling and surprisingly well-written. Get it super cheap used and read it this week!
