Books must be personal to me because I am finding this list much harder to complete than the movie list. Here are some favorites.

The Brothers Karazamov, Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Crime and Punishment, Fyodor Dostoyevsky
The Power and the Glory, Graham Greene. Add any number of GG novels to that one.
The World According to Garp, John Irving
The Stories of John Cheever
Aunt Julia and the Scriptwriter, Mario Vargas Llosa
Anything in Ian Rankin's series featuring John Rebus, an Edinburgh detective with a drinking problem and a moral code. I can relate. You will feel like you are in Edinburgh.
The Joy Luck Club, Amy Tan
London Fields, Martin Amis. I met him once.

I could easily add a hundred more....
