hm.. I've only read Slaughterhouse 5 by Vonnegurt, how does this compare?

 

[melimoo]

my mistake, its not by kurt vonnegut, but his son, mark. sorry i realised after i posted it. its basically a snapshot of life in the 60s/70s. very interesting. basically its marks autobiography - he took too many drugs and then got schizophrenia..it was mad, made you feel crazy too..it got me involved deep, it was really great. hope u like it if u read it

you should read some hunter s. thompson, if you havent already

Hm.. F&L in LV disturbed me, I don't think I drink enough or do enough (or any) drugs to really appreciate it

Wow...how awesome his Kurt Vonnegut? I'm just starting out, but the 3 I've read, I love. For anyone who hasn't read them, read one soon! Mother Night, Slaughterhouse 5 and Hocus Pocus are the three I've read and loved, can't wait to get my hands on some more.
Anyone who has read Hocus Pocus...did you figure out how many people he killed? Me and a friend got different numbers, but let me know what you got

Ooh drug fuelled books excite me. I must check for it.
