Well The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a bit different than what I've read so far. There are ideas and strange ways of looking at life, disguised as jokes, which really captivated me. But some of the remarks and jokes of the book were very much based on American and English culture which left me baffled sometimes. Give it a try if you wanna read sth fun and different.
