I think it's important, at times like these, that we recognize the good stuff.

The Thrawn Trilogy isn't bad too, but those above four are stand-out, literary quality pieces among a sea of mediocrity that is the Star Wars expanded universe.
I dunno if these will float your boat but you can try:
Traitor - Amazing standalone book set in the starwars universe
Ender's saga - Philosphy, strategy
Dune series - Abstract philosophy, higher concepts
Ringworld - Haven't read it but I've heard it's worth a go. I'm going to start it as soon as I finish the bloody Sword of Truth series.
Hitchhikers - Need I explain?
Sunshine and The Blue Sword by Robin Mckinley
Star Wars: Traitor by Matthew Stover
The Twelve Kingdoms: Sea of Shadow by Fuyumi Ono
It was called Traitor.

While I agree that most of the EU books are poorly written, I would make a few exceptions. These are ones I've read and can personally vouch for:
Deceived is optional, but Dark Lord is where you really see Anakin embrace and become Vader. Darth Bane is a cool series to see how the Sith turned from being many to just Master and apprentice.
I'm currently reading Darth Plagueis but haven't finished, so I can't comment yet. But it's also supposed to be one of the greats, and also essential to understanding the movies from what I've read.
Shatterpoint, Traitor, and Revenge of the Sith by Matthew Stover also seem to get rave reviews here on Reddit. I've gotten about halfway through RotS, and what I can say is that it explains things much better than the film did.
Even though the central theme of the book have been effectively retconned away, Traitor is probably my favorite Star Wars book of all time. Mathew Stover has written some of the best Star Wars fiction around.
