The Tempest, definitely. Les Enfants Terribles is literal rich white girl-core. Just see the Melville film instead, it's a fantastic adaptation. Cocteau was a better director than an author anyway.

2666 is dense, definitely worth the effort. Infinite Jest is a lot more accessible than people give it credit for, but the formatting is a pain (flipping between the back pages and the main novel for the notes is not a good experience). Worth reading eventually but not necessarily if you want a challenge.

One Flew over the cuckoo's nest is an essential, but Confessions is cool if you're curious about theology, which you must be really if you own a copy.

Knausgaard, but if after 20 pages you hate his pacing and tone, go for A Clockwork Orange.
