Izzy Mandelbaum: Dec 5, 2006; It's go time

I just finished The Black Dahlia by James Ellroy and The Maltese Falcon by Dashiell Hammett. Both were amazing in their own way.

About a quarter of the way through In Cold Blood by Truman Capote. It's way better than I expected. I knew it was meant to be good but I didn't expect to like his writing style this much.

I'm about half way through The Big Nowhere by James Ellroy and holy gently caress does he cram a lot of details into his plots. I can't keep up with all the characters.

I just ordered Inherent Vice and it looks like it should be a good read. Sounds like if Fear and Loathing was written by Ellroy.
