When I find writers I like, I troll the bookstore shelves to track down everything they've written and breeze through their work. A few months back, it was Jonathan Tropper--Everything Changes; The Book of Joe-- and J. Maarten Troost--Sex Lives of Cannibals; Getting stoned with Savages.
These days, the author is Chuck Klosterman. I just finished reading Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs, and I just started Killing Yourself to Live. It's basically a road trip o' death, as he drives across the US to visit the sites where famous rock musicians died. Still, somehow, the book is funny, and I haven't even gotten that far into it!
Anyway, check out his work if you get a chance.
