Book suggestions..
When I was little I loved reading. Now, because all my friends read stuff that doesn't interest me, all I want to do when I pick up a book is finish it. I hate it. I know I should be reading more to be educated and all, I just don't know exactly what to read.
My friend and I have come to the conclusion that I like Steinbeck/Orwell kind of stuff, not fiction or fantasy, but told in a surrealistic way. I also like government conspiracies, and philosophy. My parents won't let me even read the book A Clockwork Orange..ugh..so my question is, what are some really good books/authors I might enjoy to expand my brainn?

These types of books are called 'dystopias.' Some common dystopias are:
The Handmaid's Tale
1984
A Clockwork Orange
The Giver
Children of the Dust
Animal Farm
Neuromancer
Some uncommon ones are:
The House of Stairs
The Midwich Cukoos
Ender's Game
Brother in the Land
Gathering Blue
These are just a few of them - this is my favourite type of book, too, so let me know if you have any other questions!

Try Old Man And The Sea. Dat's a good one. Farenheit 451 is good too. Ummmm...Of Mice and Men is excellent.
Try do one web search fo' reading lists. Usually get some really awesome books on dat kine lists.
By da way, Steinbeck and Orwell are fiction (although dey wen write non-fiction too)! You said you no like read "fiction or fantasy."

the best book out there is called A Child Called It.
