Any other Lionel Shriver fans?

I just read So Much for That, and I loved it. It's mainly a novel about health care in America, and how horrific it can be. It's a mystery how Lionel Shriver can write books that can be so touching without being one bit sentimental, that can be so funny while describing things so awful, and how she can make me care about characters that normally I would hate. I probably throw around the word amazing a little too much, but I am in awe of her books.

I was blown away by "We Need to Talk About Kevin."
