I rarely read fiction, but this was exceptional. Best new fiction I've read since 'Up in the Air'.

Occasionally brilliant, but generally speaking, an alcoholic asshole.

Well, most alcoholics are boring and pathetic, but history has produced some brilliant ones.

I didn't read one page of the last book I had sitting by my bed, so I have decided to read one by Lynda La Plante because I love her books and I know I won't be able to put it down for hours.  I could read one I already have or purchase a new one, will look in the book stores tomorrow.

The hardcover edition of Michio Kaku's "Hyperspace" makes an excellent vial storage unit once one cuts out a rectangular portion of the middle chapters.

I've had great results with Gould's The Structure of Evolutionary Theory when trafficking striped Asians* across APEC shipping ports. Wolfram's A New Kind of Science is also great in a pinch.
