I just finished reading the Hugo winners.

Where Late the Sweet Birds Sang
The Dispossessed
Dune
Fahrenheit 451 (Ray Bradbury)
The Windup Girl
Neuromancer (William Gibson)
Rendezvous With Rama
Hyperion
The Fifth Season

And, 11 - 20:

Obelisk Gate
The Stone Sky
The Yiddish Policemen's Union
The Forever War (Joe Haldeman)
A Fire Upon the Deep
Speaker for the Dead

If there is interest, I’ll post them all.
