Yep. Great book. I like john grisham books too, although they tend to be a lil corny.

I was literally about to suggest all of these. Ricco suave, I like your taste no homo I'm pretty stunned you suggested the same books I was going to.

To dude: You might also want to check out this book "The Strawberry Statement" or if you're just looking for a lighthearted, entertaining and funny book, check out the book "A Year In The Merde". Shit had my dying the whole time. And if you're looking into Hunter, I've always liked The Rum Diaries for traveling. Read it on a trip down south a few years ago and loved it.
