If you like books about drunks, prostitutes, violence and fucking with a bit of humor = Charles Bukowski
If you like books about popping pills, shooting horse, chasing the dragon with a bit of humor = Hunter S. Thompson
get anything by chuck palahniuk
hmm, on second thought double check if hes american, might be canadian, but his shit's amazing.
if might be kinda heavy to do a paper for school on, dont know if your teacher will get offended by some of the stuff.
Gary Paulsen is a good author, he wrote the Hatchet series... and other bookes,
or read the Abhorsen trilogy
yea can't be anything offensive its high school ;PIf you like books about drunks, prostitutes, violence and fucking with a bit of humor = Charles Bukowski

J.K. Rowing is British not American.read harry potter :P[/b]
yes read Hatchet series already I didn't particularly enjoy itGary Paulsen is a good author, he wrote the Hatchet series... and other bookes,

decided to do The Hunt for Red October by Tom Clancy thx for advice anyway guys
It's not offensive, it's a journey in American culture. Sure you can pick up a Stephen King book and enjoy a couple of hours of entertaining horror, but his books won't make you think or expand you mind.yea can't be anything offensive its high school ;P[/b]
"On the Road" by the great beatnik author Jack Kerouac is another tip.
