Yippee!!!
 
 I'm only half way through it and the thought of rushing through it before I return it next week scared me.
 
 Thank you very much.
 
 It takes me forever to read it because I have to read it out loud and it's embarrassing to read out loud in coffee shops and on public transportation.  But I really like it!

These books didn't really make me change my lifestyle, but they did affect me the most: anything by Chuck Palahniuk, Glamorama by Bret Easton Ellis, Malcolm X's autobiography, One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest, something by Amy Hempnel.
