The Lord of the Rings ? by JRR Tolkien before it became a movie and was read by everyone else novels by P G Wodehouse ? One Hundred Years of Solitude ? by Gabriel Garcia Marquez ? A Space Odyssey ? by Arthur C Clarke ? One Two Three ? In ?nity ? by George Gamov ? The Fountainhead ? by Ayn Rand and ?
