I've got a new bookcase and an upcoming birthday, and it seems like those two things could work well together. The thing is, right at the moment I don't have very many books that I am actively wanting. So I need you folks to tell me about the books that I want but don't know it yet.
Favored writers include Pratchett, Bester, and my Three Donalds: Barthelme, Harington, and Westlake. Top books are Catch-22, John Varley's The Golden Globe (haven't liked his others as much), and That Grail Song, Sam, One More Time by George V. Packard, which is probably too obscure to help but I love it too much to leave it out.
Best thing I've read recently was Kevin Hearne's Iron Druid Chronicles, now I'm stuck waiting until April for the next one. Oh, Philip Palmer's Version 43 was also great. In general, I like books that take an unusual approach to things, especially books that don't fit neatly in one genre.
So tell me what I want, because I want to want things.
