  1. (I'm Jack's infectious feeling of happiness) I guess, I have enough books to read for the next couple of months. Thank you very much!
  2. Onion Budgie, MrCat. Thank you very much. I'd like to correct myself. I didn't mean to say that I think literature without violence or murder is bad. It's just not for me.
  3. Dear, community users. I hope, you're having a great day. I'm new here and I live in Russia, so I realy would like to ask you not to give me a hard time about my English. I've always thought that fiction was boring and preferred scientific, philosophical etc. books to it. I was wrong. Really really wrong. I discovered fiction about 3 months ago and since then can't help spending at least half of my day reading. But after several great books I'd read (which all were dark, dystopian kind of novels: 1984, American Psycho, Fight Club, A Clockwork Orange etc.), I faced a problem. I dropped about 5 books after reading first 30-40 pages, because "happy/normal stories" turned out to disgust me. I just can't enjoy them. Can you recommend something that a normal English teacher or a conventional parent would call outrageous, offensive, sick, abnormal etc.? I especially want to find something like Fight Club. The book and the movie recevied very mixed reviews but it was a life-changing experience for me. Thanks in advance for your help!
