We had to read The Fountainhead as part of freshmen orientation at college. Then I read Atlas Shrugged to see what all the hype was about.
The former is a little more interesting as a novel. The latter is just long and boring and not so well-written. Mostly those that cite it as their favorite book have poor taste in literature, more than anything.
If I want to read well-written and interesting arguments for something akin to Randian politics, I'll go with Reason Magazine.
