I've only just started reading A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius, but already I can't recommend it enough. The sentences are beautiful and flow seamlessly into one another. The voice is so distinguishable, even from the first few lines. It's packed with humour and emotion and, dare I say...it's compulsively readable. Here's a great quote:
"...for aesthetically disenfranchised furnishings we are like the families that adopt troubled children and refugees from around the world - we see beauty within and cannot say no."
