Outside a dog, a book is man's best friend.  Inside a dog, it's too dark to read.

--Groucho Marx

Staff Picks Hall of Fame

We've been doing staff picks lists for our customers for years.  Rather than including all of them here, we've created a "hall of fame" instead.  These are the books that we have most loved recommending over the years, the books that our customers let us know they love, too ("what else is like Shantaram?"), and the books we keep coming back to and are so excited to tell you about when we learn you haven't yet read them.
