I could go with The Hitch-Hiker's Guide. I also just finished up Angels and Demons by Dan Brown. That was a marvelous book, along with The DaVinci Code (but A&D was better). Also Brown's book Deception Point in becoming quite a page turner.
Also, I might get made fun of for this, Jurrasic Park and Jaws were both very good books.

Well, when I was just a wee lad it was Where the Wild Things Are.
Pretty much anything by Vonnegut I like, Old Man and the Sea by Hemingway, Thus Spoke Zarathustra by Nietzsche, and always enjoy a Stephen King book.
Currently reading The Devil in the White City, very interesting.
The Scarlet Letter is, by far, the worst piece of **** book I've ever had to read however, Nathaniel Hawthorne should burn in hell.

For me it would either be Night Watch by Terry Pratchett or Veronika Decides to Die by Paolo Coelho. Not as depressing as it sounds. Well, not at the end anyway.
Edit: What a highly efficient filter we have

I could't possibly choose a single favourite, but there's plenty that have affected me hugely:
The Grapes of Wrath, John Steinbeck.
Frankenstein, Mary Shelley.
Illywhacker, Peter Carey.
Midnight's Children, Salman Rushdie.
Labyrinths, Jose Luis Borges.
I notice a lot of science fiction in other people's influences here, not surprising given where we are, but if you've not read any then I strongly recommend Iain M Banks, he's the only modern SF writer with any originality I think :)

No one is saying the Bible? You're all going to hell heathens. That one part where Jesus goes to the Orient and kills all those ninjas and has that nunchuk fight with Buddha is great.
Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis is great book, in all seriousness. Secret of NIMH was great when I read it in 3rd grade, one of about two books I had to read throughout school career that I actually enjoyed.

For a completely different reason than most:
The Kon-Tiki Expedition by Thor Heyerdahl. original print.
It was bought for me by my folks when I was just a kid. We were at the the beach near our home and were readying to go home. I didnt have a book to read for the trip and the only shop selling books was an antique shop. We went to have alook for anything reasonably priced and interesting, and I found it.
Sometimes its not the story that counts, but how its told :)
