Sadly this doesn't include many books. Probably going by free ebooks library or such. Would Love to hear from other's book recommendations fiction or non. Those looking for inspiration I'd recommend (not in order) * Ray Bradbury * Pearl S. Buck * John Wyndham * Fyodor Dostoevsky * Frank Herbert - Dune * Terry GoodKind - Wizard's first rule |

There's another pretty good one, that includes more science writing and such, at the end of Adler's How to Read a Book.
Bloom's:

And that site has a bunch of other lists in a similar spirit, on it.
[EDIT] One thing to beware of with free ebooks and non-English works in translation, is that it's pretty common for older public-domain translations to be needlessly-obtuse to a modern reader, or outright bad. Worth taking a few minutes to compare your options before committing to one of those.
