Angels and Demons is better than DaVinci, in my opinion, but it's still not all that wonderful, compared to a lot of other popular fiction. It's a good read, though. He manages to pull of a few good twists, but there are some things you can easily figure out before the end.
I haven't read Little Women by Louisa May Alcott.

I read Little Women a loooong time ago, and fondly recall it as one of my favorite childhood stories.
I have never read Of Human Bondage by W. Somerset Maugham (but I would love to someday!).

I haven't endured through Pride and Prejudice .

Oh, what a shame! I did! Enjoyed my first Austen and laughed my head off, certainly the second time and neevr looked back.
I haven't read the Divina Commedia/Divine Comedy by Dante (yet).
One has to laugh before being happy, because otherwise one risks to die before having laughed.
"Je crains [...] que l'âme ne se vide à ces passe-temps vains, et que le fin du fin ne soit la fin des fins." (Edmond Rostand, Cyrano de Bergerac, Acte III, Scène VII)
I kind of feel like playing this game, so I'll answer "partly". I've read the Inferno only. I really liked it.
I haven't read a single novel by Charles Dickens. I've tried a few times. . . but his characters just seem like talking manikins to me.

I've read "Of Human Bondage"- it's a brilliant read. It was a while ago now but I remember that it was an interesting perspective on male/female relationships.
I have read some of Dickens' books in English (Great Expectations, David Copperfield, Bleak House, A Tale of Two Cities and Pickwick Papers) and I find them mostly entertaining because of the caricatures they provide. Dickens shows a great sense of humour compared to some of his contemporaries (say, Bronte sisters or George Eliot).
I have not read The World According to Garp.
