The Big Sleep by Raymond Chandler
Great book that I keep having a hard time putting down. I've never read any of Chandler's stuff before but I may have to after this. I had certainly been hoping the book would be entertaining but I had no idea how funny it would be too!

I loved it too. I bought a copy of it from overseas. I would also like to read more dystopian books.

You guys have heard of the 33 1/3 book series on albums right? Are any of them worth buying and reading?
