Answer: Of these, my favorites:
1) Lolita (best book ever written, by far!)
2) Jane Eyre
3) Love in the Time of Cholera
4) Ethan Frome
5) The Scarlet Letter
6) 1984
Of course, I can't pick the best book for YOU. 1984 is the most "masculine" of these, the rest are *somewhat* "feminine" books. Lolita is a little difficult to read. Jane Eyre is probably the easiest. Ethan Frome and The Scarlet Letter are very short. Ethan Frome, The Scarlet Letter, and Lolita (depending on your point of view) are American, Jane Eyre and 1984 are British and Love in the Time of Cholera is Colombian. All are very good, but be sure to pick a book you're actually interested in and not one that someone tells you to read.
Surely you can narrow down your list by just looking for one sentence summary on the internet about the books' themes, and finding that quite a few of them don't interest you at all.

Markets Brief
Dont Rejoice Over Higher GDP Yet
Steve Schaefer, 01.29.10, 11:55 AM ET
The U.S. economy crushed expectations by growing at a 5.7% clip in the fourth quarter of 2009, but even as Wall Street rallied on the news there are plenty of warning signs of a slower pace ahead.
A restocking of inventories by American businesses drove a large portion of the fourth-quarter increase, contributing 3.4% compared with just 0.7% in the third quarter when growth was a far calmer 2.2%. Excluding the inventory factor, real final sales of domestic product were up just 2.2% in the October-December period, after rising 1.5% from July to September.
The big impact of inventories is something of a red flag, particularly since the consumer input to GDP was weaker in the fourth quarter than in the prior period, and Dan Egan, president of the Massachusetts Credit Union League, expects the Feb. 26 updated look from the Commerce Department to rein in the estimate.
"[The 5.7% figure] was a surprise," Egan said. "Its an encouraging recovery sign, but theres a difference between Wall Street encouraging and Main Street encouraging." While the data supports arguments that a recovery is building momentum, high unemployment, little job security and limited access to credit are making that story a tough sell to many Americans.
The consumer is essentially frozen, Egan added, and even those with jobs are looking over their shoulder and holding back spending. One of the results is that credit unions are seeing an increase in savings, which inched up a tenth of a point to 4.6% in the fourth quarter, as households look to strengthen their defenses against future crises.
After starting the day with solid gains, Wall Street pulled back toward even by noon. One factor may be recognition that the 5.7% GDP figure might be revised downward in a month. Even if its not, Egan warns that the economy can not sustain that pace as the inventory cycle normalizes without a stronger consumer component.
Near midday the Dow Jones industrial average was up 24 points at 10,145, the S&P 500 gained just a single point to 1,085 and the Nasdaq slipped into negative territory, losing 5 points to 2,174.
In the mornings most high-profile earnings release, Chevron came up short of estimates with fourth-quarter profits of $1.53 a share. It came as little surprise that the integrated oil giant missed the Streets consensus call of $1.70 – Chevron warned last month that pressure on refining margins would put a dent in its results – and in a choppy session investors sent the companys shares up 0.1%.

Answer: Need a real life example?
The company I work for develops industrial real estate. We spent enormous amounts of money building new buildings in 2009 on a speculative basis, taking advantage of low construction costs from contractors who were begging for work.
Nobody is in those buildings. They are empty, available for sale. This is because of the recession, and not because things are rebounding.

Answer: Although I don't care to be famous I must say I'm soooo glad my favorite comedian of all time is an atheist.
Eddie Izzard.
Try saying he doesn't have morals doing all that running for charity.
If you think someone like that doesn't have morals, then you are seriously a lost cause.

(Other?)
Answer: Its great that you included Edgar Rice burroughs in your list.So many people dismiss him because he's not new.But I think that he's terrific.
I'll go with readingredhead and recommend Jim Butcher's Dresden files book series.There are 8 books in the series beginning with stormfront.It narrates the story of Harry Dresden,chicago's only professional wizard who works as a detective.He stands between the general population who is ignorant about the supernatural world and the monsters - vampires,werewolves,fallen angels,fey.He is aided by Bob,a talking skull.Karrin Murphy-a police officer and Thomas-a white court vampire.
Dragonjousters series(joust,alta,sanctuary) by Mercedes Lackey.The setting is ancient Egypt.Hunger, anger, and hatred are constants for young Vetch, rendered a brutally mistreated and overworked serf by the Tian conquest of his homeland. But everything improves when a Tian jouster requisitions Vetch to become the first serf ever to be a dragon boy. His training is intense, and his duty clear-cut: to tend his jouster, Ari, and his dragon, Kashet. He discovers that, because Ari himself had hatched Kashet, the dragon is different from others that have been captured live in the wild and must be drugged to be made tractable. Vetch finds he really likes and understands dragons, and soon he becomes the best dragon boy of all. He still harbors anger, however, toward the Tian invasion. Could he, perhaps, hatch a dragon, and then escape to help his people
I liked the Valdemar series by Mercedes Lackey.The books I liked in the series are Exile's honor,Exile's valor and Take a thief.
The review given below is about Exile's honor.
Valdemar and Karse have long been enemies. The Karse have made an art of it, sending bandits to plunder Valdemar, having their priests train the people to believe that anyone with a Herald's Gift is a demon in need of death. Alberich of Karse, newly-made captain and gifted with a handsome white stallion, has never formally committed himself to battle with his hereditary enemy. He has the gift of foresight, which he has long tried long to hide, but cannot when he sees that a village is about to be attacked and destroyed. He rallies his men, and saves the lives of many, only to forfeit his own. Two men who wanted his commission take advantage of the situation and have a Priest condemn him as a demon. They throw him in a small barn, planning to burn him to death. His white stallion charges in to save him, but he is still badly burned. This stallion, a Companion named Kantor takes him to Valdemar, where he is healed... only to find himself facing a whole new set of problems.
Mercedes Lackey's Take a Thief is the tale of Skif, a young orphan reminiscent of Oliver Twist, making his way in the knock-and-tumble neighborhood between two of Haven's outermost walls. Skif is intelligent, good-hearted and creative enough to forage up three meals a day in a place where food is scarce and kindness almost unheard of. After a chain of events leave him homeless, Skif lands in the lair of Bazie, an Faginish ex-mercenary who trains thieves...until he is "Chosen" by one of Valdemar's magical horses and becomes a Herald serving the Queen.
Furies of Calderon (Codex Alera, Book 1) by Jim Butcher.(From Publishers Weekly)At the start of Butcher's absorbing fantasy, the first in a new series, the barbarians are at the gates of the land of Alera, which has a distinct flavor of the Roman Empire (its ruler is named Quintus Sextus and its soldiers are organized in legions). Fortunately, Alera has magical defenses, involving the furies or elementals of water, earth, air, fire and metal, that protect against foes both internal and external. Amara, a young female spy, and her companion, Odiana, go into some of the land's remoter territories to discover if military commander Atticus Quentin is a traitor—another classic trope from ancient Rome. She encounters a troubled young man, Tavi, who has hitherto been concerned mostly with the vividly depicted predatory "herdbanes" that threaten his sheep.Thinking that Amara is an escaping slave, Tavi decides to help her and is immediately sucked in over his head into a morass of intrigues, military, magical and otherwise.Warning:A character gets raped.
Allan Cole wrote the Timura triology.(review from Amazon)
Warrior Iraj Protarus was a boyhood friend of Safar Timura, who, raised to be a potter, turned out to have an at first unsuspected talent for sorcery. The visions they share and the battles they fight side by side as they set off on a journey impeded by intrigue, enemies, plots, betrayals, adventures, and all the other trappings of the fantasy quest are the basic stuff of the book. Eventually, Iraj has a throne and Safar is his high magician, but realistically, the tale cannot end there, for the friends have hardly seen the last of the host of enemies who customarily badger the possessors of power.
