Don Quixote (funny!)
Anna Karenina...Tolstoy in general

mmhhh...that's about it. I haven't really read fiction in awhile, although I do read about a 100 pages a day...but not for fun. I did read Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell recently. A fun read. I recommend it.

What is The Great Gatsby like? It is meant to be good, and I want to read it.

 

[miu_miu]

Great Gatsby is brilliant, not a terribly long read, so it would be a good introduction to F. Scott Fitzgerald. It's about love, money, class divide, unrequited love. It's a good look at 20s society as well. It's also one of my favourites, along with...
Tender is the Night - F. Scott Fitzgerald
War and Peace - Tolstoy
Anna Karenina - Tolstoy
Great Expectations - Dickens
Portrait of a Lady - Henry James
Love in the time of Cholera - Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Along with many others that I'm forgetting and many others I have yet to read! I'm sure I'll have many more favourites to come.
