Has there ever been a more overrated book?

is it /lit/core or /drug/core and could you post more /drug/core

Can /lit/ recommend books like this one? I like drugs and the life philosophy Thompson had.

2 questions.
1.) How is Thompson as a journalist
2.) How is Thompson as a novelist (i.e. was the 4 dollars I spent shipping that elegant edition to my doorstep well spent?)
Right now I'm about 30 pages into Hell's Angels an enjoying it so far. Thompson hasn't established himself as a character in the narrative yet (I assume he does at some point) but he writes well and knows his audience. That being said I don't know much of the man's career outside of these two works and am set to become a doctor of journalism so I figure I should learn a bit more about the guy. And who better to ask than /lit/.

Haven't seen the film. Is this worth reading?

I was reading this today during school. It was toward the end of class, in a class where we usually don't do anything at all except talk about the news. It's a pretty awesome class.

Anyway. I had this laying on my desk when this girl next to me gasped and grabbed it. She said, "OMG (my name here), you're reading this? Have you seen the movie? It's hilarious!"

I've never seen the movie. The book doesn't really seem like a comedy to me though. Am I reading the book too seriously?
