Stuff White People Like
Cristan Lander
If you're white, you need to read this book. If you know a white person, you need to read this book. Lander has gotten to the heart of the absurdity of chronic whiteness and hysterically puts white pop culture in its place. After I read Stuff I thought "Christ! Is it that obvious!!?"

Gonzo
Jann Wenner & Cory Seymor
A wonderful look into the life of one America's great writers by the people who knew him best. Gonzo shows the beauty, insanity, and tenderness of H.S.T. It's all here; the work, the love, and the final gun shot. Gonzo is a fine addition to any Thompson library.

Goodnight Bush
Erich Origen
A scarily hilarious bed time story for adults, or any God-fearing patriot. The afterword is particularly revealing. This book will have you sleeping with the lights on, and with copies of the Constitution and Bill of Rights under your pillow awaiting the democracy fairy.
