Not just for completists. Gives a new and clearer view into the origins of the Discworld series, and the pictures are really good. Stand on their own as graphic novels.

Another satisfying novel from Nancy Clark. Broad set of characters brought together in non-contrived ways. Not quite Jane Austen, but she wouldn't like Maine anyway.

Lynda Barry shares her creative process with you in a book full of great drawings and insights. This is the same stuff she teaches at courses around the country, and it works. Memory and images make fiction, right? And you can start in ten minutes.
What It Is is great.

The first throrough and researched history of Sephardic Jews in America written by a professional historian for a general audience.Fascinating if you're Sephardic, interesting if you're some other kind of Jew, and a sound immigrant story for everyone else.
