Wuthering Heights. I had blown it off for weeks (senior slide baby!) and had a test on it on Monday, so I spent all day Sunday reading it in one sitting. It remains the most powerful and formative reading experience of my life.

I've seen people complain that the book is too long (choosing to ignore the obvious joke). But I've only ever "read" by audiobook. And if you haven't read it like that, you might want to give it a try. It's an absolute pleasure to have that book read to you.
