500 Places to See Before They Disappear
As an editor at Frommer's travel guides, I have one big regret: that Hurricane Katrina beat me to New Orleans. It's sad and even a little embarrassing that I canceled plans to go not once but twice before it was too late. I'll always have the zydeco and jazz records ...

Mr Playboy: Hugh Hefner and the American Dream
Steven Watts
Wiley, 2008
Interesting and surprisingly substantial.
I work for the publisher and got a copy of this book from the editor. I was expecting a fun read, and it is, but it also makes a strong case for Hefner as a major force affecting American culture. There's a lot of good storytelling along the way (and quite a few ...

Tithe: A Modern Faerie Tale
Holly Black
Simon Pulse, 2004
Great Book
This was a great book. Right along the lines of Melissa Marr books. It does had a bit of inappropriate items for very young readers but for actual "Young Adults" it is just fine. Highly recommend this book.
