I recommend Ready Player One to everyone. If you grew up in the 80's, you'll appreciate the nostalgia.

Also, Stephen Hunters first Bob Lee Swagger novel, Point of Impact, is good reading. Some are better than others, and the quality noticeably diminishes as the series goes along, but I really liked that one.

I read the Axis of Time trilogy by John Birmingham. Deals with a Navy task force in 2024 that is accidentally sent back in time on top of the US Navy during the battle of Midway, and the accompanying alternate history that goes with the allies and axis having access to future tech.

Great book.

For Christopher Moore my favorite of what I've read if Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal.

I'm actually reading Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy for the first time right now. Really good so far, but I'm sure most of you here have read it.

John Lindgvist writes some strange but good ones. He wrote Let the Right One in, which is good. Also wrote Little Star, which I enjoyed. They can be strange though.

Ghost Story by Peter Straub is one of my favorites. Hell House also, but I'm sure you've read that. Heart Shaped Box by Joe Hill is pretty good. We Need to Talk about Kevin by Lionel Shriver is good. Penpal by Dathan Auerbach was really good. Wool Omnibus by Hugh Howey is interesting, but I'm not sure if it's just on Kindle.

I read a lot, but for some reason I'm just drawing a huge blank on recommendations.

The Tooth Fairy by Graham Joyce. Just remembered that one.
