I picked one at random. It ended up being Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card.

That was pretty excellent. Any more sci-fi recommendations?
Starship Troopers by Robert Heinlein is excellent. The movie was way different than the book, so if you've seen the movie, try not to read the book with any pre-conceived notions.

Rendezvous with Rama by Arthur C. Clarke is another one of my favorites. It's about a massive cylindrical object (50km long) of unknown origin that shows up in the solar system and the team of scientists that go out to investigate it. Not much action, but some really cool concepts to think about.
