    Famous for Generation X wrote some other books that I feel should get recognized because they seem far more interesting then Generation X, granted I never read the book. Anywho, Girlfriend in a Coma and Hey Nostradamus are great books and just recently I bought Miss Wyoming and hope it is just as good as the other two I read.

    What do you honestly think of Coupland?

    I love him! Have read Hey Nostradamus, Microserfs and Generation X, about to embark on Girlfriend in a Coma. Fave so far is probably Nostradamus, I should really get that back off Amy...

    Microserfs is about a bunch of computer geeks working for Mircosoft. I thought it was good. My favorite book by him is a non-fiction piece titled "Polaroids from the dead."

    Read only Hey Nostradamus so far. It was a nice read, I enjoyed it a lot. But he's not something new and extraordinary. Just good.
