book recommendations? Empty book recommendations?

Hi all! Very Happy Anyone have any good book recommendations? I just returned a bunch of library books and need some new, interesting reads.

I tend to like quirky, sarcastic books with dysfunctional characters. (Hmm, wonder what that says about me! Razz ) Authors like David Rakoff, David Sedaris, Carrie Fisher, Sarah Vowell, etc.

Any suggestions? Thanks much! Very Happy

The Gum Thief by Douglas Coupland. Very witty, very sarcastic, or anything by same author.

Well the library didn't have "Hunger Games" (I'll have to check another lib), but it did have "The Gum Thief" which I just finished reading, and enjoyed! Very Happy The format was a bit confusing at first, but once I got into it I really liked it. So thanks Nightowl! 2Tup
