Rand can be boring at times, but as the other posters said, you may find many parallels in today's world. Her "looters" and "moochers" are alive today, and the "parasites" are still at every level of our political system. I loved her novels, but if you have any liberal leanings, you probably won't. She was a true capitalist who believed in personal responsibility above all else. And there is nothing subtle in her writings.
