Its really not definitive and it definitely isn't what I consider to be the best books I ever read, just ones that I very much enjoyed or meant a lot to me.

JRR Tolkien - The Hobbit
Tao Te Ching
John Milton - Paradise Lost
Yes Means Yes: Visions Of Female Sexual Power And A World Without **** (anthology from various authors)
Seung Sahn - Wanting Enlightenment Is A Big Mistake
Margaret Atwood - The Handmaid's Tale
Fyodor Dostoevsky - Crime And Punishment
Robert Aitken - The Morning Star
John Ajvide Lindqvist - Let The Right One In
Thich Nhat Hanh - A Lifetime Of Peace

I would have liked to pick more fiction, but its the religion books that mean the most to me.
