Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

I've heard countless tales of teenagers reading atlas shrugged and the fountainhead and it twisting them to be selfish assholes and call themselves libertarians for a while. This book was like that for me but instead I was inspired to go on a many drug fueled adventures as possible and collect crazy memories.

Aside from that, this book and f&l on the campaign trail are incredible snapshots into the counterculture view of Nixonland and just how horrible it was. It also made me really sad at the complete lack of interesting drugs available to me when I was young.
