| I like the Andy McNab books, also Iain Banks books are damn good, and even tho normally I dont like science fiction, Iain Banks - The Player of Games is an awsome book |

always fancied myself a beatnik in a previous life.:toothless |
GAAHH! me too! "the only ones for me on the mad ones..." i'm dying to take a dean-moriarty-style trip. have you read 'the electric kool-aid acid test'? the author eludes me, but a lot of it is about kesey and that group. |

You people have good taste. I've been looking for something good to read. Don't have a clue what to get though, cus I don't like normal .
My favorites:
Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas - Hunter S. Thompson
ScrewJack - Hunter S. Thompson
Porno - Irvin Welsh
The Rules of Affection - ?
Choke - Chuck Palahniuk
Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory(wouldn't have thought of it but it's in cool)
Alice in Wonderland(screw you all, you know the looking glass is some of the trippiest ever thought of. A Hookah smoking catapillar, yeah.:D )
Given those tastes, what would you suggest? |
