Suggested to me to read:

Flannery O'Connor (suggested by JJM)

Walker Percy
Love in the Ruins
Moviegoer

Gene Wolfe
Nightside the Long Sun (four volumes in two)
"It's about a priest on a sci-fi planet who gets "saved" on the first page, and then begins on a journey to understand who the God is who saved him. Great reading. RC author. Lots of biblical imagery, etc." PG rated by Burke.

John Buchan (suggested by Tom Clark)
Sick Heart River
Witchwood

Susan Howatch (suggested by Wayne Larson)
Glittering Images "it's about sex, Karl Barth, and spiritual direction"

TG's list:
Fyodor Dostoevsky. Devils (sometimes titled as The Possessed, or Demons); The Brothers Karamazov; Crime
& Punishment.

Leo Tolstoy - Anna Karenina

Chaim Potok

Umberto Eco - The Name of the Rose; Foucault's Pendulum; The Island of

Graham Greene- many classics. The Power and the Glory is perhaps his best-known.

Jane Austen - Mansfield Park, hands down.

Anthony Trollope. A great, prolific English writer from the 19th
century. "Discovered inside a Graham Greene novel. If
you read nothing else by him, be sure to read Barchester Towers."
