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.
