With respect to fiction, my taste is pretty eclectic, though I am not usually a fan of stuff that is too high-fallutin. In other words, no Umberto Eco, Toni Morrison, Thomas Pynchon, or Mickey Spillane.

If you like history, this is one of the best books I've ever read:
It's beautifully written, relies heavily on primary documents, and gave me tremendous insight into what an incredible person Elizabeth was.
