I enjoy reading the lord of the rings series, although the books can be a bit difficult to read sometimes . . .

"Elantris" by Brandon Sanderson (bonus: LDS author)
The "Mistborn" series, also by Brandon Sanderson.
Just about anything by Patricia C. Wrede.
"Tam Lin" by Pamela Dean.
The "Wheel of Time" series by Robert Jordan (warning: LONG series. Also, Robert Jordan has passed away and the last book is being completed by Brandon Sanderson)
Dianna Wynne Jones has a few zillion other books besides "Howl's Moving Castle." The "Chrestomancy" series is pretty good.
"The Hero and the Crown" and "The Blue Sword" by Robin McKinley. I like most of her books, actually, but the later ones involving magic tend to have climax fights that read like drug trips.

W00t! Yay books! Lawl. A few I recommend:
The Runelords by David Farland
Of Mice and Magic by David Farland (this guy is way awesome. and he's a great friend too, lol)
Ranger's Apprentice by John Flanagan (Nine books in the series so far, but since John is Australian the U.S. only has up to book five for now.)
Wild Magic and The Circle Opens by Tamora Pierce
Yes, I'm a fantasy geek. Lol. blaugh

I read a ton! One series I would suggest is the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series . This are aimed towards middle school kids, but if you are into Greek mythology then they're fantastic. If you aren't, then their still dang funny! For a more spiritual read, try the The Great and the Terrible series (first book: "The Brothers") This book follows a family through the premortal exsistence and then into the Last Days. It's fiction (obviously) and talks a lot about terrorist attacks (in fact that's the entire conflict of the 2nd-5th books). It also gives a rather facinating image of what Satan's veiw is. Some of the chapters are rather gloomy, because they are written from the perspective of a character who was one of the 1/3 of the host of heaven who left alongside Lucifer. Both series' are amazing, and well worth reading.

I suggest Terry Pratchett's books, I started with "Soul Music" but they're all very cleverly written and amazingly funny with references to pop culture among other things.
Likewise, as was suggested earlier, the entire series of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" is amazing. I have read all four books and must say the most recent movie doesn't do any of the books justice.
Just about anything by Orson Scott Card has proven to be very readable in my tastes, from Wyrms to the entire Ender Series.

I recently finished reading the chrestomanci series. It was a really good series, but the books were out of order big time.

I've also recently read "The Flag of Our Fathers" by James Bradley. I recommend this book to those of you that need a good biography. You should probably read the edited version though. The original version goes a bit over the top.
