Home Maintenance & Repairs: Any suggestions for replacing formica in bathrooms (3) plus bedroom bookshelves (3) other than granite?

We have a 50 year old home with formica on the bathroom counters and some of the bedroom bookshelves. I'm not a fan of granite and probably couldn't afford it. Is there something else that would be up-to-date?
