Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. Edge-of-your-seat suspense story, with huge topical relevance to today's world. Everyone should read it.

I had to read the book in high school. I enjoyed it.
Have you seen the movie? There is a 1966 movie directed by Francois Truffaut, I thought it was very good.

I'm joining the thread really late, but whatever. I just watched this movie and it really made me want to reread the book. I thought the book was a lot more suspenseful and intriguing than the movie, but the movie was good.

As for my favorite book, outside of The Paradise Snare (star wars nerd), my favorite book is a tossup at the moment between Straight Man (Richard Russo) and Ender's Shadow (Card).

Straight Man is a really really funny book if you can relate to the main character, and I would imagine many Loungers could.

Catch-22.

The penultimate take on the madness of war told in a satirical style that has never been attempted before or since.
