According to the Chronicle of Higher Education (subscription wall), this is what the college crowd is reading right now:

1. When You Are Engulfed in Flames by David Sedaris
2. The Last Lecture by Randy Pausch and Jeffrey Zaslow
3. Three Cups of Tea: One Man’s Mission to Promote Peace … One School at a Time by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin
4. New Moon by Stephanie Meyer
5. Eat, Pray and Love: One Woman’s Search for Everything Across Italy, India, and Indonesia by Elizabeth Gilbert
6. The Audacity of Hope by Barack Obama
7. Rant: An Oral Biography of Buster Casey by Chuck Palahniuk
8. Dreams of My Fathers by Barack Obama
9. Twilight by Stephanie Meyer
10. Hellboy, Vol. 8: Darkness Calls by Mike Mignola, Duncan Fegredo, and Dave Stewart

Two of those are political wankfest autobiographies, one is a comic book and two others are part of a series about a girl who falls in love with a vampire (and later a werewolf). Number 11 is probably a Family Circus anthology or a Choose Your Own Adventure book.
