in which I open a door to probable madness

[rushthatspeaks]

The branch library near my house is not terribly well-stocked, and I need to make specific requests to get things transferred between the branches. My to-be-read pile has three books left on it; I left most of my stuff in Boston. There are bookstores nearby from which I could order things,

Recommend me books. Any subject, any genre, any field. What would you be most shocked, horrified, and upset to discover that I (or anyone) hadn't read? What have you read lately? What do you return to over and over? What do you think I, personally, might not have stumbled across?

Go nuts.

Yep--he's also a poet, and Butler is talking about four YA fantasy writers.
