Alot of these but my childhood favorites were Agatha Christie, Jack London, Ray Bradury, Isac Asimov, Sidney Sheldon, Judy Blume. Where it all started for me and really the few authors I have reread many times like comfort food to me.

" Don't let go "
Just hold me tight .
Kiss me softly ,
by the candlelight .
Turn up the music ,
this is your song .
Come close baby ,
where you belong .
Do you want to dance ?
I love the way you move ,
give me a chance ,
If I mess up, I'll improve .
As time goes by ,
and moves so fast .
I want it to stop with you ,
so I can make it last .
Make a wish every day ,
so I can make it come true.
I'm sending Love your way ,
and kisses just for you .
You are my everything ,
more than words can say .
I wish we never had to part ,
and you were with me everyday .

Ooooh, I love Barbara Kingsolver! Also Stephen King (mostly his early stuff, he's become too self aware to write good horror anymore, IMO, although I still like his books), Joe Hill (good writing runs in the family, I guess!), JA Jance, Rachel Caine, Charlaine Harris, Neil Gaiman (MUCH LOVE!), Vladimir Nabokov, Laurell K. Hamilton, Margaret Atwood, Patricia Cornwell, Dean Koontz, Jim Butcher, lots of YA authors (especially urban fantasy), Douglas Preston/Lee Child, Mary Shelley, Italo Calvino, Kelley Armstrong, Anne Rice, Christopher Moore...
I'll stop now. Sigh. Did I mention I read a lot?

Some good ones in your list, RecoveringGoth! Especially Neil Gaiman and Jim Butcher.
I've moved away from fantasy/sci-fi, though, and now read a lot of mysteries and suspense. Favorites: Lee Child, Robert Crais, Michael Connelly, and Carl Hiaasen. Also Malcolm Gladwell's nonfiction stuff, plus any good road trip book, like Steinbeck's Travels with Charley or anything by Bill Bryson.

has anyone read Octavia Butler's Kindred? I've never read any of her other work, but this one is amazing. Normally, I don't read much SciFi. But this is one of my favorite books.

My favorite book of all time is: Embracing the Heart, Engaging the Mind. It was written by Joseph R. Dunn PhD, and is available on Amazon. The link is below.
CHECK IT OUT!!!
http://www.amazon.com/Embracing-Heart-Engaging-Mind-Resilience/dp/0578011565/ref=cm_cr_pr_pb_t
Here's an excerpt:
People do not live to be two or three thousand-years-old, but their stories do. Stories bring us as close to immortality as we can experience in this life.
Embracing the Heart, Engaging the Mind: Universal Stories of Resilience (with commentary) offers an array of 65 teaching or wisdom stories from around the world that have been passed down from generation to generation. The stories come from a variety of cultures and traditions including Rabbinical (Jewish), Sufi, Zen, and Christian. They come from Europe, the East, the Middle East, Africa, and the Americas.
Each story is followed by commentary which is mostly psychological in nature with some social and spiritual observations. A few of the stories have an historical basis and are modern; however, most are traditional and date back centuries.
The “Introduction” begins, "In the beginning, before there were psychologists, consultants, and experts, there were stories." The theme of the book is developing psychological resilience, that is, not only surviving but thriving in spite of facing life obstacles. Some would refer to the theme as positive psychology. Psychological resilience deals with developing personal strengths rather than focusing upon psychological disorders.
