Why should it be one developed into a movie?

I hadn't heard that the Rum Diary was being developed into a film. This is the Hunter S. Thompson book, right? If so, I assume you've read Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas which was developed by Terry Gilliam?

The Rum Diary is a good book. I read it a little while ago, and I started reading Fear and Loathing after I finished that. Maybe it's just the kind of thing you have to either watch or read. I found The Rum Diary much more interesting. Bleh. It's a hard concept to explain. :\

The movie looks badly cast, to me, at least.

Rendaezous with Rama - a sci-fi by Arthur C Clark to be turned into a movie directed by David Fincher.

Since you want reading 'advice,' read 'The Purpose Driven Life' by Rick Warren... One of the more insightful "Why on earth am I here?" books you're bound to find...
