@Eliza, Ender's Game is amazing.

Guess I can't really rank them, but I'll give you five "must-reads".

The Fabric of the Cosmos: Space, Time, and the Texture of Reality - Brian Greene (As boring as it sounds, it's told in such an interesting way ... that, well, you lose yourself in its dimension)
The Wasp Factory - Iain Banks
Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrel - Suzanne Clarke
How to Think About the Great Ideas: From the Great Books of Western Civilization - Mortimer J. Addler (Comedic philosophy. :])
The Girl on the Landing - Paul Torday.

I could spawn endless lists of good books.

Everybody loves the universe. If you can look past the black holes, the rogue asteroids, the gym teachers, and that paper boy who keeps throwing your magazines into the bushes, it's a simple place most of us can call a happy home. It's a good thing. However, even the obviously non-sentient universe has a sense of irony. You see, the universe is going to end. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, maybe not 10120 years from now, but it will happen. One of the ways science predicts our inevitable demise is by pissing off God. But that's another story. Instead, another way that science predicts the universe will cease to function is through the "heat death of the universe" theory.
