Best production goes to His dark Materials. A must.

I also recommend :
Of Mice and Men
1984
Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption
The Now Habit - a self help book for procrastinators.
On The Wealth of Nations by P. J. O'Rourke - a summary of sorts of Adam Smith's famous book.
The Art of Mingling - it's okay I guess. Also good for falling asleep.

Don't recommend:
Clan of the Cave Bear, because the book sucks.
