I loved Time Traveler's Wife, but found Her Fearful Symmetry mostly just weird. I know some people who said they thought it was better than TTW, but that was certainly not my opinion. I'd actually heard pretty good things about the TTW movie, but I haven't seen it.

Of course, Henry and Mudge. And, Poppleton. And, the Berenstain Bears. Etc. My kids are actually past those books, which is a little sad. *sniff*

I just started JR Ward's Covet

I've now opened a new thread for 2011...so look forward to lots of book recommendations.

Find the thread here

Close, but not quite there! I had a qazillion books that started with "G" but none with "Z". Go figya! *I'll have to find a zucchini cookbook for next 2011*

Have you (or your son) read The Vegetarian Myth? Really good. I'll look for Omnivore's Dilemma ~ haven't read that one yet. I personally consider Nourishing Traditions to be an absolute essential for any home. It's a cookbook and nutritional treatise in one.

Umm, I think In Defense of Food was written by Michael Pollan, not Karen Marie Moning.

I haven't read either The Vegetarian Myth or Nourishing Traditions. I'll add them to my (disturbingly long) suggested books list and see what I can get to. Thanks for the recommendations!
