2nd book i ever read was I, the jury..someone tossed it on my bunk way back..couldn't put it down and later at a used bookstore bought up most all of his works...

Mickey Spillane: I, The Jury; Vengeance Is Mine: The Big Kill; My Gun Is Quick,Kiss Me, Deadly.

First book i remember reading was, of course,
The Catcher in the Rye .. J. D. Salinger

You must have been an advanced reader. My first book was something about Dick and Jane and their dog Spot or maybe Go Dogs Go. I still like that one.
