Music, even though I can't make any, is a huge part of my life. Dementedly happy or perpetually sorrowful, music eases my life. Unless its Justin Bieber or rap or anything like that. Then, it's just a bit of a nuisance.

Seeing as how this is a writing site, I guess it'd only be obvious to put up a few of my all-time favorites.
The Airborn trilogy by Canadian author Kenneth Oppel, mainly part 2: Skybreaker. A vividly imaginative steampunk alternate 1910's universe where secret animals roam the skies. Great read for teens :)
John Dies At the End by David Wong. Anyone who says that a horror/comedy mash-up would be stupid should read JDATE. The funniest lines and creepiest moments all-in-one. It's like a book written by a stoner that's still somehow legible to everyone, albeit incredibly bizarre. The most entertaining book I've ever read, and the first time I went through the whole thing in a single read.
The Dead Zone by Stephen King. Although the ending is rather anti-climatic, the theme and King's writing style make this one of my best reads ever.
Watchmen. One of the first comic books to step away from typical superhero stories and create a realistic 70's where superheroes are people like you and me: flawed human beings.
The Silverwing Saga by Kenneth Oppel, mainly Firewing and the spin-off title Darkwing. A unique view on the world of bats. Made me love bats, actually...
Notable titles: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Inkheart, The Hobbit, Death Note, The Chronicles of Narnia: Voyage of the Dawn Treader, The Godfather.
