Currently I am on Hunter S. Thompson's The Hell's Angels. Not written at all like Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas but still interesting to read. In the past month I read, In Cold Blood by Truman Capote (true story of a multiple murder in the sixties), Fiesta: The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway (boozey expats partying in Spain in the thirties I think), The Constant Gardner by John le Carre (international intrigue written by a former spy, don't watch the movie, it blows), and A Scanner Darkly by Philip K Dick (insightful book on substance abuse).

All time favorites though would have to be Chuck Palahniuk's novels (author of Fight Club). I recommend them all and am eagerly anticipating his next coming out in May. Aldous Huxley's Island (author of A Brave New World) in which a utopian paradise is crushed by outside forces. I can't recall any others at this time, but that should give you a start.
