Book I'm reading now:
"If You Want to Write: A Book About Art, Independence and Spirit," by Brenda Ueland, first published in 1938. At first it sounded like nothing I'd pick up on my own — it's a how-to book, I'd never heard of it or the author, and it seemed like a weird one to read on the subway — but I got it as a gift and fell into it right away. It's clear and strong and good and kind of feels like a lighthouse.
Last book I loved:
The last book whose characters I missed when I wasn't reading was probably "Lonesome Dove," by Larry McMurty, which I wish had a Narnia-style portal on its last page. And "Jesus' Son," by Denis Johnson, although I didn't love that one so much as have a dirty, all-consuming crush on it.
Unread book on my bedside table that gnaws at my conscience:
"This Is How You Lose Her," by Junot Diaz. I don't know how I'm still only halfway through it, because "The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao" was so great. And this one's good, too. I guess I'm just moving more slowly. If we were all whales, I'd say Junot Diaz seems to be closer to the surface and taking deeper, cleaner gulps of air. That's kind of how I envision his brain. Right below the waves.
A book in my field that I highly recommend:
Books about . . . blogging? Ah, no, I would actually do an anti-recommendation. Do not buy any books about blogging!
One book I would recommend to anyone:
Chris Ware's graphic novel "Jimmy Corrigan, The Smartest Kid on Earth." A friend first recommended it in a "here, just read this" way, but if I had to describe it — moving, beautiful, basically perfect.
