Ooh. Have read "House of Sleep" and "What a Carve Up!" by Coe, and liked them (with reservations, but overall they were good) so I will probably like "The Rotters' Club" too ...

I haven't even tried reading "Prozac Nation" because every time I even pick it up and look at it I just find myself wanting to strangle somebody, preferably the author...
