I'm with Amanda... ANYTHING by Chuck Palahnuik is golden! Speaking of, Choke is coming out as a movie soon.

I'll recommend authors instead of single books:

SF&F
Clive Barker
Phillip K Dick
Frederick Pohl
David Brin
Phillip Jose Farmer (which was actually three separate SF authors from the 60s-80s working on side projects together)

Comedy
Ben Elton
Tom Sharpe
Terry Pratchett (although it's also a fair bit of SF&F really)

Suspense & Horror
Any of Stephen King's not supernatural based books (he writes really good psychos, like in Rose Madder)
Clive Barker (again)
H. P. Lovecraft
