LOST Book List Pt. 1 - Sawyer's List
These are the books Sawyer is seen reading throughout the TV show Lost's 6 season run. Sawyer was easily the most voracious reader on the show, and I feel it is only right he gets first crack at the list. There are too many books depicted on Lost to be able to list them all in one list. I have split the lists up into 4 easy to find groups.

"Bad Twin" is fiction within fiction. Sawyer read the manuscript of this book in season 2, but the actual book was later released as a spin-off. It is written by fictional author, referenced in Lost, Gary Troupe.
Sawyer reads this in season 4. The plot concerns a fugitive surviving on a desert island.
A book about the crime of a man blowing up his house to kill his wife, and the feeling of justification that followed, much like Kate.
Format:
Ben found this book in Sawyer's belongings in episode 6, season 6. More a reference to its title than its actual content.
Format:
A book Sawyer is seen reading all the way back in season 1. The book is about time travel and a missing father. It also has a number of references to the biblical character of Jacob.
Format:
Referenced in the episode "The Whole Truth," season 2. A possible metaphor about the "new" Sawyer considering the book is for preteen girls to better understand their changing bodies.
Format:
A very telling book when applied to Lost. Sawyer is seen with it on several occasions, and he refers to it as a cute story "about bunnies." Boone accuses him of stealing it. The story is an allegory about rabbits trying to survive many trials as they try to find "home" and details the cyclic nature of life.
Format:
This book appears a number of times, with both Ben and Sawyer quoting from it in "Every Man for Himself." Sawyer tells the Man in Black that it is his favorite book. A dark look into the inner mind of Sawyer, indeed.
Format:
Sawyer is seen reading this in "Par Avion," season 3.
