It is interesting to see many others do the same: This is not merely a case of blogger-boys-club-back-scratching, but recommendations based on sincerely held beliefs about the quality of a writer’s output.

It should be fun, so let's make it happen. Take a look in your own booksellers next week and report back! Tim,
