Anyone else read his books? I think he also writes articles for distinguished magazines regularly but I haven't yet come across them. I loVed "Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs" and am waiting to begin his new "Killing Yourself to Live."

I've read parts of Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs but haven't actually sat down to read it straight through. My sister met him when she was in New York though and they correspond from time to time...professionally, of course. She's a journalist so she asks for advanced copies of his books to review and etc., since she's a big fan.

I've read 'Sex,Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs' and I loved it, naturally, I was excited when his new book came out, I'm reading it now, and again, I love it.

I have yet to read his first book, but I'll get it when I'm done with this, I love how he writes, and I love that I understand his pop culture references!

I just finished his new book (Killing Yourself to Live" and loved it again. Klosterman is so insightful and funny.

Angela12: If your sister ever started seeing CK unprofessionally.. you'll prolly find out about it in his next book.
