      - I recently heard an uncharacteristically enthusiastic review of it on NPR. Got my psyched to check it out. -- nm - con_carne Jan 20, 08:17 1
        
        (I think the review used the word "fun" about half a dozen times) -- nm - con_carne Jan 20, 08:22
look at your bookshelf, go to the library, or nominate something you've always wanted to read. there's nothing saying it has to be a recent release... -- nm - znufrii Jan 20, 08:08
if only there were places that let people look at books either in person or on line... -- nm - Beaker Jan 20, 08:07 4
- in that: try amazon or your local library -- nm - Beaker Jan 20, 08:08 3
  - (Bah.) If left to just that, I would constantly nominate nonfiction, which I have a hunch might result in me wasting my votes. - con_carne Jan 20, 08:11 2
    - non-fiction is a completely valid nomination. - ty97 Jan 20, 08:13
    - I think a non-fiction choice would be great. certainly not every month, but once in a while... -- nm - znufrii Jan 20, 08:12
