I don't have any memories of exploring public libraries growing up, but I do have a fondness for the Scholastic book fairs. I also grew up in a pretty rural area. Here are my 3...

White Fang by Jack London. My favorite book growing up.

Survivor by Chuck Palhaniuk. The book that reintroduced me to reading for fun as an adult.

The Passage by Justin Cronin. The first book that I ever re-read. I used to have a fear that if I re-read a book, it would never match the original experience and I wouldn't love it as much. This proved to be absolutely false, and has only helped me love my favorite books even more.
