Thought provoking books?

[Nebulous]

Which are some of the most thought provoking books you've ever read?

 

[Dee]

Oryx & Crake

American Psycho

Fahrenheit 451

The Giver

Lord of the Flies

 

[DrLeftover]

The ones that came to mind immediately were all Non Fiction.

Which is pretty much all I read.
