Rant... RANT! I have to say that in university, especially working towards a degree in Creative Writing and Visual Arts there isn't much time for reading literature not on some dinosaur professor's syllabus. Now with 3 classes left I had a perfect opertunity to take a crack at something I knew I'd like. I didn't realize how much I would like it though. I actually made notes on little post its, keeping straight what was going on and who said what. It became a great puzzle, I loved telling people what it was about, or what I thought it was about after every few chapters. This book blasted it's way into my top 5. Hell, right now, it's number one. This was entirely enjoyable. And now it's hard to drive my car without thinking about party crashing.

Thanks Chuck, this novel is my ultimate favourite.
