Excluding what I didn't like, I've read:
Daraku no Ou
Yojouhan Shinwa Taikei
Shin Sekai Yori
NHK ni Youkoso!
Kino no Tabi
LN:
- Zaregoto (NisiOisiN)
- Spice & Wolf (Hasekura Isuna)
- Baccano, Durarara, Vamp and Etsusa Bridge (Narita Ryohgo. My favorite series is Baccano, but Vamp is right up there too)
Animu and vidya related novels:
- Phenomeno (a horror novel series by Ninomae Hajime, the dude who wrote the Madoka novelization. The cover was by ABe, just like NHK. There was a Nitroplus adaptation of part of the first novel, with in-game illustrations by Namaniku ATK, the dude who illustrated the Chaika and Haruchika novels)
- Digital Devil Story (Nishitani Aya - it was adapted into the original megami tensei game)
- Meishogenkoroku (Okanoya Shigezane - most sengoku period animus are heavily inspired in it. The translation is incredibly light reading, too)
Japanese Novels:
- 1Q84 (Murakami Haruki)
Japanese Tales of Mystery and Imagination (Edogawa Rampo. Jump to The Caterpillar if you wanna be scarred forever)
- In the Miso Soup (Murakami Ryu - several of his books have been adapted into movies, including one by Hideaki Anno, but In the Miso Soup is the goriest of his books. Yes, even more than Audition).
- The Ring Cycle (Suzuki Koji - they've been adapted into the famous Ringu series of movies)
- Battle Royale (Takami Koushun)
From the top of my head.
You can get a bunch of japanese novels, including all of the non-LNs I recommended, from here:

Thanks.
Out of curiosity, whose archive is this?
>>145275
It's a mirror and extension of the regular novel folder that was deleted from that one particular manga site made by /a/.
