Read It - 1984 by George Orwell

Check it out here.

So I know that this was probably required reading in high school for a lot of people but I will say when you don't have to read it it is a really great book. I think the warning within its pages has never wrung truer in my lifetime than right now. It is a pretty bleak glimpse at one possible future for our world that could become a reality if we are not careful. There is supposedly also a movie adaptation in the works spearheaded by Tim Robbins so now would be agreat time to read the book.
