Anything but Twilight.
I consider any thing with vampires Twilight-ish, and since I'm the only one who hasn't put a book down, try Leviathan

If you like video games I highly recommend Extra Lives by Tom Bissel. Very good and in depth about game design and narritive and its problems. He talks about the story in video games and its problems. Great

13 Reasons Why: About a girl that committed suicide, and leaves a cassette tape with 13 reasons why she did it. She leaves the tape for a boy that liked her (secretly). It's real sad and awesome at the same time. Lots o' twists. But I'm a Law and Order type of guy, so yea, I love that stuff.

Catcher in the Rye: You probably read it, but if not, come on man.

It: Steven King. Freakin' creepy. Reason why I hate clowns.

The Shining: Read above.

Pet Cemetery: Read above above.

Hatchet: Survival book. Teen ends up in a jungle due to the crashing of a plane that he was in.

Bud not Buddy: Just a good book lol. Read it in 6th grade.

Ikigami: Awesome manga. Don't know if you're into manga's, but this is about a new program in Japan used to help the Japanese appreciate life more. So, they set up this thing where in the 6th grade (or something like that) every student is given a shot. A few given the real thing, the others given a placebo. The ones given the real shot end up dying on their 18th birthday or so. The book is about the guy that has to hand out the Ikigami (the letter) that lets the person know that they will be dying in 24 hours. It's so good bc of the reactions of the people that get them and the extremes that go to as well as why this is being done and the people trying to stop it.

Skeleton Crew and Night Watch are neat little horror collections and are well worth picking up. I got both for about £2 all together at a secondhand bookstore as a christmas present to myself.

The Dresden Files: Modern Fantasy about a wizard who basically whores his services out illegally. He screwed up somewhere along the line and lost his license to practice magic or somesuch in the magical community. As such, he has started to offer his services to those who don't really believe in magic. Often he gets called in for bogus stuff where he doesn't really do anything, but sometimes he is able to land a case that will make full use of his skills as a detective and a wizard.

For fiction, I always recommend Vonnegut. Palahniuk is also great, and Mark Haddon has a few good books. I also really liked Craig Clevenger's first two novels, but haven't followed his new ones. Im reading Hermann Hesse's Siddartha right now, which is incredible. For more advanced books, check out House of Leaves, which is my favorite fiction of all time. Also hood, but difficult to follow in a wonderful way, are Thomas Pynchon's Gravity's Rainbow, and David Mitchell's Cloud Atlas.

If you like non-fiction journalism, read anything by Malcolm Gladwell. Especially Tipping Point.

For high-fantasy set in the real world that isn't Harry Potter, I suggest the Artemis Fowl series by Eoin Colfer.

And anyone hasn't read this phenomenal series, dash to the nearest library and read Douglas Adams' Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series. Brilliant literature. He was a fantastic author, I also suggest Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency. Of course, these are only at their most hilarious if you appreciate British humour.
it's like a metaphor or something i don't know
