We’re often asked to give a reading list to people.  The following books should have been read by every high school graduate and therefor every college graduate.  Looking for a gift that will make a difference in their lives?  These are a great start.

Amazon stocks them: 
  

1984, George Orwell

Brave New World, Aldous Huxley
