Noticed you liked Clockwork Orange, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here as well as a few other book-related sites. Thought you might like my book since it's also about a group of violent kids (and also a bit dark). I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like (I'm out of physical copies at the moment). Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary (and a sample chapter) in case you'd like to read more about the book before you commit:

Thanks,

Lot of books there that I want to read, and some that I have read and forgotten about. Naked Lunch - wow I read that when I was about 18. I thought I was so cool to be reading Burroughs. Most of it went right over my head. Junky I loved though. What a book.
And the Trial another I want to read.
We have a lot of authors in common, but different books.
Keep uploading.
