You know, that question really threw me off guard. I have no idea if you're a troll or not... But only because for five years, until we read it in our senior high school class, I thought it was about beavers.
Fucking seconded. Anything by J.D. Salinger, really!

The Da Vinci Code was awful.
Angels and Demons was the same book.

Shit OP, all 3 of the books you listed were mandatory reading at my High School. Though I don't think they could honestly be considered controversial anymore.
Even putting that aside, I loved the story and the characters. Great book.

Lolita is a controversial must-read, though the controversy isn't over its quality or artistic merit.

Dunno how controversial it is, as it seems to be lacking the popularity required to cause controversy, but A Fraction of the Whole by Steve Toltz contains some fairly controversial ideas. I picked it up before going on vacation, and I ended up spending most of the trip grinding through it.

Letters from the Earth by Mark Twain - very /b/tard humor and very funny.
The Satanic Bible by Anton LaVey - I lol'd.
The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster by Bobby Henderson - Obvious.
As you can see, I like satire that pokes fun at religion.
Catcher in the rye sucks ass. We had to read it for school and it bored me to death. I can usually read a book like that in 2 hours, but it took me 2 weeks!!!
I only bothered cause Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex references it.

Congratulations, you've recommended a book that even many people who succeed very much at literature consider boring. But it's famous, so it must be good amirite?
