Sacred Jellybean Wrote:ABF, recommend me more Mark Twain. I've only read Tom Sawyer (high school reading assignment, and I liked it), Huckleberry Finn (more recently, last year, loved it) and The Mysterious Stranger (excellent book though you can tell it was cobbled together by different edits and that the ending pretty much comes out of nowhere, and is probably only interesting to Solipsists, though it made my jaw drop and I loved it).
I'm not ABF but I'd recommend Life on the Mississippi. It's an extremely interesting and entertaining memoir with Civil War undertones and other stuff. Plus it comes with all the Twain style and witticisms you've come to expect. Gotta love that Old South shit. According to Wikipedia, it was the first typewritten manuscript ever submitted to a publisher.
