This is a great idea Marky ... there's a world of books out there

Am trying to get a copy of The Girl in the Flammable Skirt by Aimee Bender

Istanbul - Orhan Pamuk
If on a winter's night a traveller - Italo Calviono (a book made up of little books and chapter headings that make up something else as well)
Shadow of the Wind - Carlos Ruiz Zafon (there's a cemetary of dead books ... nothing else need be said)
Paper - Bahiyyih Nakhjavani (for all those who love the written word)
Reef - Romesh Gunasekhara (there's the most amazing cake in this and the book reads like a poem)
Dante's Club - Matthew Pearl (round like a circle in a spiral on the paths of Hell)
Q&A - Vikas Swarup (all you need is life is for someone to ask the right questions at the right time)
