Haven't read it, in fact, I just got The Eagle of the Ninth from my library. It will be the first book by her that I read. I have no idea why your icon looks familiar, because I've never heard of him. Hmmm.
The Twinkie Squad is one of his most outrageous books, I think.
And I love The Great Gatsby, so I'm biased, but I didn't think it was dreary or depressing. If I was ever forced to pick one book as the Great American Novel, it would be Gatbsy. It's so - timeless, oddly enough, even though it catalogs a specific time :)
