I liked your list and your reasons for listing them are compelling enough for me to check out a few. Personally I've only read four of the books on your list and enjoyed them immensely. I place "The Tomb" above "Salams Lot" and maybe ... maybe, "Lord of the Flies". That's a tough one for me.
Thanks for your kind words. 
At first Ford had formed a theory to account for this strange behavior. If human beings don't keep exercising their lips, he thought, their mouths probably seize up.
After a few months' consideration and observation he abandoned this theory in favor of a new one. If they don't keep on exercising their lips, he thought, their brains start working.

The Tomb was only number 10, and after a Steven King book? Well, we'll let you slide there. Welcome aboard.
