the good thing with Filipino literature is that it is more about what's around you... and it also makes sense to a way that, you might think twice on whether you wanna go out in your home or such.
I also LOVE Bob Ong's books. In fact, I have all of them.
I also enjoy reading Neil Gaiman's works. To be honest, I've just started collecting his books and so far have read Stardust and Anansi Boys. I already bought Good Omens but haven't started it yet, though...
Jostein Gardner is another great author for me. I've read Solitaire's Mystery and A Christmas Mystery (which is fitting for the incoming season). Weirdly, I haven't read Sophie's world...
I am currently reading Po Bronson's What should I do with my life and so far enjoying it.
All hands down to Dan Brown, he had shake the faith of every Catholic on what he wrote. I never imagined in my life that such book will ever exist. To challenge out the church and let them explain? Well, it was quite a convincing story, but we may not really don't know what is behind Monalisa's smile, because somethings are left for good reasons. And thus it serve as a mystery for all of us.
I'd also like what does jk rowling does with the Harry Potter series, first it was really had a great plot and story line.
Novels about history, love-affairs,fantasy, magic etc, I'm not quite a fanatic of those series book
My favorite author would be Mario Puzo, and I like the Godfather so much, the book as well as the series of movies. I also like Robert Kiyosaki and the Rich Dad series, also Donald Trump's series of books. I guess their advice should be taken into consideration and their books must be read by everyone else especially in times like this, with the economic crisis.
George R.R. Martin - A Song of Ice and Fire. Although you got to recall what and where around twenty different persons as well as their connections to all other ones are it's enjoyable series.
Stephen King - The Dark Tower. Unlike the rest of Stephen Kings books this is not a horror novel but a sci-fi/fantasy one actually. Nice storyline and a rather, for me at least, uncommon setting makes it worthwhile to read.
Douglas Adams - The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. Not exactly sure what the series is called but it's regardless probably the best books I've ever read. Douglas Adams lack nothing when it comes to insanity and unlikely events, all mixed with a certain flavor of playfulness. If you've not read it - do it.
Robert Jordan - The Wheel of Time. Easily one of the best fantasy series I've read. A great storyline and overall good feeling of realism and fantasy. Although it was quite a long time since I read it now, I'm waiting for the last book before I reread all books again.
Nick Perumov - Keeper of the Swords. All other books lack the ubiquitous... blackness seen in Perumov's books. I enjoy the difference in the way of writing and how his books are so completely different from what all other fantasy I've read before. The two first books were both extremely good, but the third one had another translator who lacked the same skill as the first one to transfer the blackness to the books. For me the third book was a very poor one, and I would've called the series bad if it wasn't for the two first ones. I definitely recommend it to anyone who would enjoy less "all is good" feeling and more realism, blackness... depression almost.
I love to read books by John Maxwell. I've read his 21 irrefutable laws of leadership and it is really inspiring. I also read the books of DOnald Trump, and from all of his books, I love the Art of the Deal. I also love to read Harry Potter books.
I like the books made by James Clavell about old Japan and Hong Kong... sort of epic and a good insight into feudal Japan and mid 20th century Hong Kong and other Asian countries. I also like the book AZTEC.

I read "Shogun" when I was a teen. Good looooog book. The paperback was so big it fell apart on me. After that I would read the pages and rip them off the book as I went along.
Mary Gentle's "The Wild Machines" series of fantasy books about Ash, a mercenary leader in about the 14th century.
David Webbers's "On Death Ground" series of space opera sci fi books, about the expansion of humans through the galaxy. There are two precursors in this series.
Glen Cook's "The Black Company" series of fantasy books.

Christian Jacq's "Ramses" and "The Stone Of Light" book series were almost amazing. Historic novels based on ancient Egypt
The classic Michael Moorcock's Elric series if u like fantasy novels. Tragic story not the i am hero type.
Laurel K. Hamilton's Anita Blake series, filled with vampires werewolves and other supernatural beings for a lighter read.
And my all time personal favorites are Agatha Christie's books with Hercule Poirot, simply amazing
