ditto to lamb by Christopher Moore!
Some others I'd suggest:
A Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson(hilarious account of an Appalachian trail through hike attempt)
Holidays on Ice- Dave Sedaris (How can you go wrong with festive stories like "Dinah the Christmas Whore" ?)
In lieu of the thoreau try:
A Sand County Almanac by Aldo Leopold (just beautiful)
or
The River Why by David James Duncan
Some of my personal faves:
The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand
The Once and Future King by T.H. White
Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert Persig
any short stories by Ray Bradbury
