I have just read Spolit Brats, a short story collection by Simon Rich.

Never heard of him until I read a review of this book. Very good. At moments I was actually LOL-ing. And that doesn't happen often with books.

I read this not so long ago, and whilst I shouldn't be surprised that it's a great book, well, I was surprised at how great it actually is. Made it into my top ten books. It's a really well written book and has some fantastic moments in it. Enjoy.

Just started getting into his stuff and I really enjoy it. Hope to read his whole body of work. So far I've read Slaughterhouse Five, Cats Cradle and Breakfast of Champions. What would you suggest next?

God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater

Easily one of his best, although Slaughterhouse Five is one of my favorite stories ever. In fact I need to revisit that.

Just got done with the newest Murakami novel. I thought it was a good read, albeit quick. Really nice introspective story.

Started this yesterday, my first Murakami. With all the glowing recommendations here, had to give it a go. Love his style so far.
