Fantastic choices. I agree on Dickens and Wodehouse. I remember R.L. Stine, the writer of the Goosebumps books, said he loved Wodehouse because of the sheer volume of them, and also the fact that they were all almost completely the same.

Also would list Agatha Christie, Lewis Carroll, Jorge Luis Borges, Joan Didion, Thomas Hardy, J.R.R. Tolkien, M.R. James, Brett Easton Ellis, H.P. Lovecraft, Flannery O'Connor, Shirley Jackson, and G.K. Chesterton as particular favourites.
