You won't be sorry.
As far as other books mentioned itt, I enjoyed Pattern Recognition as it was well written, however I felt as though the writing was better than the story itself.
I very much enjoyed Lunar Park which was also mentioned, other than one detail (that I will put in a spoiler, tho I'm not actually giving any plot points away whatsoever)
I did not enjoy The Dice Man, I mean - I finished it - and it certainly brought up some interesting concepts, but overall I found it pretty lack luster.
I know this is out of context for this thread, but I recently read Slaughterhouse Five which I really enjoyed, as well as The Catcher in the Rye, which was also a fantastic read. Obv outside the scope of this thread, but thought I'd throw them in. In the same category is Angle of Repose, which is a very well done 'yarn' of a period piece, though it can be a slog at some points.
Currently finishing
Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter - which is very good. It almost seems too fun to be mentioned here, and with the amount of Vampire crap in pop media these days, I can see being a bit turned off, however Grahame-Smith does a wonderful job of weaving historical fact with Vampire motivated political logic. It's this interweaving that makes the book really good, instead of just a fun fiction read using a well known historical figure.
