Revisiting some of my old favorites...

Fahrenheit 451 (check)
Animal Farm
1984

I love societal pieces/critiques.

I assume you've read "Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley, if not then I highly recommend it. It's very much the opposite of Fahrenheit 451 and 1984, yet still conveying the same basic principal messages.

Oh yeah, a personal favorite and the first I read in this "genre". One of the few prescribed books in high school that I really enjoyed and still resonates today.

Valis- Philip K. ****.

Pretty good so far, I really do like him as an author.

that book definitely contributed to making me less mentally stable.
but then, all his books probably did.

Its a strange sensation to be completely disgusted while laughing your ass off.

The Train of Ice and Fire by Ramón Chao
 
It's Manu Chao's dad diary of a journey they made in Colombia in 1993 with other artists putting on concerts. I'm really enjoying it and I think what they've done is incredible

That actually sounds pretty interesting, Manu Chao is great.
