Default Re: Help an English lit noob out - need some good fiction

here are some books i think young guys would like:

The Quiet American is a really great book. Greene is a very talented novelist.

Catch Me if You Can is a great lite read.

The Virgin Suicides won a bunch of prizes.

i really haven't been reading much fiction lately. if you want to read a great book about sexual evolution that is written by someone who knows how to write and not a scientist who bores you to death, check out The Red Queen - it really is an awesome read. One of my favorite books of all time.
