droolfangrrl recommended, long enough ago that I don't remember why, an autobiography to me: The Way The Future Was by Frederik Pohl. A day after I started reading it, Pohl died, which did rather spoil the ending.

Don't look at me like that, having read his autobiography I'm pretty sure he'd find that joke hilarious.

( The Way The Future Was )

Final Verdict: Thoroughly enjoyable, funny, and not a little educational. I'm not sure it's a book one would want to go out and buy, because I think it's a sort of one-read kind of book, but I wouldn't feel my money was wasted if I did buy it.
