Lust For Life, by Irving Stone. There are more recent books but they're all judged in relation to this one.

"Ready Player One" is my current favorite book. Really just a fun read all the way through. It does help if you grew up playing with an Atari game system. I'm having a really hard time finding a book I like even 1/2 as much since finishing it.
I'll add another vote to "The Art of Racing in the Rain". The story is told from the POV of a dog recounting his life on the day he dies (not a spoiler - you find this out on page 1). If you've ever loved a dog you will LOVE this book.
"A Dogs Purpose" is another great read if you like dogs. Read this BEFORE you read "Art of Racing..." or you will think it's not very good. That's not a fair assessment though as both books have stuck with me long after I finished reading them.
