I don't have ONE favourite novel, but I have loved The Trial, Pale Fire and The Crying of the Lot 49 the most.
Right now I would like to read more none-fiction, starting with some biographies (Kant, Kierkegaard, Oppenheimer).
At the moment I'm reading a book about suicide and Slow Learner (Pynchon short stories).

I forgot, there is a very nice book about Bach (Music in the Castle of Heaven) that I've been wanting to read for a while. I have the epub so I may just read it when I finish the books I'm reading now.

200k leagues under the sea
Probably Slaughterhouse 5. Read it many times and very funny and profound. Also hold Brothers Karamazov in very high esteem as my father impressed upon me when I was a teenager how much he enjoyed it and how great a novel it is.
Funnily enough in Slaughterhouse Kilgore Trout tells Billy Pilgrim that all you ever need to know about life is in Karamazov.
The Windup Bird Chronicle
I listen to audio books at work cuz I have no time for reading. Almost done with The Martian.
Recommend me some books to listen to, robots. Please.

No. He tells him that once (long ago) all that was needed to learn about life was in the Karamazov.
