I haven't read too many books in my time, but I finished a really good one about a month ago now, called, A Million Little Pieces, by James Frey.
It's pretty much a recollection of this mans experience during his 6 weeks of rehab. He was an alcoholic for 10yrs, a crack addict for 3yrs, and the book starts out with him, on a plane, with his 4 front teeth missing, broken nose, and a hole in his cheek...he had no idea how, couldn't remeber...
Then it goes from him into rehab, straight through to the end. After reading it, it made me realize how destructive crack, speed/meth, alcohol really is. This man was 23yrs old and if he had one more hit of crack, or more drink, his body wouldn't take it, and he would die.
At one point in the story, he has to go to the dentist to have root canal work done, WITH NO ANESTHETIC, because he is an addict, no drugs at all...
Damn!

I think that you're talking about the celestine prophecy.

Brave New World by Aldous Huxley and 1984 by George Orwell are two of my recently-read favorites.

Hell yes. I heard that Tim O'brien writes 9 hours a day every day no matter what. Just a useless fact for all you readers.

I love to read, and have a lot of odd trivia types of books, like Facts and Phalluses; Fart Proudly by Benjamin Franklin; Uppity Women of Medieval Times. I have an interest in ghosts, witches, Irish history, King Arthur, and erotica, so I have a lot of books, 3 very large book cases full.
When you open a book, you open the doors to the world.
