The Rum Diary
by Hunter S. Thompson
For some strange reason, before I'd ever read anything of Hunter S. Thompson's, I knew I would love his work. Sure enough, I do. It's a unique style. I love his "I don't give a damn, I'm going to say how it is and do whatever I feel at the moment" prose.
The Rum Diary is exactly its title. There's 100% drinking involved throughout the book (most cases it was necessary), crazy people making crazy decisions and a sense of a foreign American dream. Wild, honest, and fast paced - but really good.
