Recommend A Book to a Blogger the First

Today is my birthday. Yay! I thought it would be a good day to start Recommend a Book to a Blogger~~ Details below:


Hand drawn picture is unsophisticated!


So normally I recommend (or warn you away from) books. Today, for a change of pace, I would like to solicit recommendations from you guys! Even though I have a growing pile of books to read, I am always searching for more or one for the right mood.

Some Incentive:
Any books I do read as a result of a recommendation, I will write a review and indicate who it was recommended by with a link to some site or cause the person would like to promote.

Some Guidelines:
-I do ask that you take into consideration what I generally like before giving a recommendation. To that end, there are my reviews of course, and information on all the books I've read can be found on Goodreads.

-Also, please give a title, the author, and a few sentences as to why I should read it. If you want to take advantage of the promotion part please give your email address so I can contact you.

-If you want to take advantage of the promotion thing, recommendation must be in by 11/23/10

If this thread goes well, I will do this again probably once a month.

I'm going to suggest "Running with Scissors" By Augusten Burroughs.

It has some weird characters, but (in my opinion) it is a hilarious story! The movie SUCKS though, so stay away from that ;-)

 

I'm going to suggest Hotel World by Ali Smith. I don't have a GoodReads account so I don't know if you'll like it, but it's... Surreal, for lack of a better word.

 

Ohhh... you have to check out "Danann Frost Falls From Grace" by Joanne Valiukas! She's a self published author and you can read the first 100 pages or so on her website http://www.joannevaliukas.com

It's my new all time favorite book :)
