Apart from obvious ones like Ulysses, Hamlet, and L'Étranger, the two best 10/10s for me are Wuthering Heights and The Count of Monte Cristo.

Wuthering Heights because I find Heathcliff an intriguing character, and especially after Catherine dies and Heathcliff becomes the villain the book is absolutely amazing! Completely makes up for the somewhat boring first half, which is essentially just necessary setup for the second.

The Count of Monte Cristo because it's complete escapism. I love the culture of France it portrays, and it is possible the best revenge tale of all time, seconded only by Hamlet. It also has the deep philosophical aspect which I feel is severely overlooked on this site, which is a shame. Also, I hate the meme that Dumas' prose is shit, because it really isn't, and managed to make a 1200 page book completely engaging that whole way through.

Dubliners (then Portrait and Ulysses if you feel like you're up for it), L'Étranger, and Macbeth (or other entry level Shakespeare).

I read for enjoyment, not to appear intelligent.
