@SecretPinup: "The Elegant Universe" is an AWESOME book! Since you like that, I'd also recommend "Warped Passages", by Lisa Randall. Readily available on Ebay and elsewhere.
My three:
"The Lord of the Rings" (complete in one volume), J.R.R. Tolkien
"The Divine Comedy", Dante Alighieri
"The Golden Bough", Sir James Frazer

Gates of Fire by Steven Pressfield
Enders Game by Orson Scott Card
The Runner by Cynthia Voigt

I recommend time tested classics like Tess of the d'Urbervilles, Wuthering Heights, The French Lieutenant's Woman and Macbeth. The pain, passion and tragedy of the human condition with powerful women center stage.

I am a former college English professor so I have so many it's hard to even choose! Being a former teacher doesn't mean you will like my selections, or that even my selections are good. It only means I've read A LOT
The Dissident by Alexei Navalny
His story is incredible, a real life superhero. Like all superheroes, they are gone too soon.
The Universe is Calling You by Char Margolis
This book changed my mindset, introduced and sold me on the idea that Energy is the force that brings us towards and away from what we want that is controlled by belief. Easy to read.
Dante's Inferno
Intense. Terrifying. Based on himself.
Happy Reading!

Don Quixote
Don Quixote, the OG knight in shining armor... or, um, rusty armor, charging at windmills and battling imaginary giants! I love how he's like, "Forget talking about morality; let me show you how it's done, even if it means tilting at windmills." Dude's got action written all over him!
Where the Red Fern Grows
If you haven't cried your eyes out at this one, are you even human? This book is a rollercoaster of love, loyalty, and all the feels. It's like Ralph Waldo Emerson's idea of "self-reliance" meets puppy love. Just replace the philosophical musings with adorable dogs, and boom life lessons for the soul!
Pride & Prejudice
Yes, a classic! Who can resist a love story where the heart wants what the heart wants... even when it's wrapped in a ton of bias and misunderstandings? Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy teach us all that, hey, maybe we should look past our judgmental tendencies, because sometimes true love is hiding behind a pile of preconceived notions. Plus, hello, Keira Knightley enough said!
I love these books because, deep down, they're all about the same thing: people (also dogs) who won't quit, no matter how ridiculous or heartbreaking the situation gets. Whether it's tilting at windmills, training a couple of hounds to be the ultimate team, or fighting your own pride and prejudice, everyone's just out here trying their best... and failing in the most dramatic ways possible. It's like, "Okay, I'm gonna throw my whole heart into this, even if it means making every mistake in the book!" And honestly, that's kind of how I approach meeting new women here on HX, bold, blind, a little clueless, but totally committed to making it work, even if it involves a few awkward moments and mistakes along the way.
To Kill a Mockingbird definitely deserves a spot, but in a room full of beautiful women like this, I figured Don Quixote might be the better role model. I mean, the guy charges at obstacles like they're his sworn enemies, and if that's not the energy we need here, I don't know what is. Let's be real, who wouldn't want to follow a guy who's always ready to fight for what he believes in, even if it's just an imaginary army of cats or some very confused goats. Heck, if you have happen to read my interludes and cat miss-adventures, then you know where I am coming from.

My Top 2:
Grapes of Wrath - John Steinbeck. I had to read it in HS and I don’t think I ever finished it. Picked it up recently and didn’t want to put it down. If you close your eyes, open the book and put your finger on a paragraph then read it, you would think “wow, I must have gotten lucky on that paragraph.” Every page is like that. His descriptive writing puts you right in the book. Steinbeck was an amazing writer.
Hells Angels - Hunter Thompson. Another one I could not put down. Just a phenomenal story.
