Guess who's 39 ... again?

Yes, that's right. Or maybe with my new haircut I should say I'm "29"? Anyway, what's with the gratuitous mention of my birthday today? Well, I want something from you all. (There's always a catch, isn't there?)

This month, Unnamed Partner and I will be going to Ptown for a week. As in Massachusetts. In mid-May. It's a little risky, I know. But we seem to be eternal students, which means we are eternally on a budget, and we need to get a deal where we can. Which means going to the beach before Memorial Day.

Okay, so what do I need from you? Some good books. Well, not the actual books -- I would be quite happy with the titles, really. You see, if the weather is sketchy, I foresee plenty of time to curl up together and catch up on some reading, but I need your help:

What is the best book you've read lately?

By the way, today is also the birthday of Englebert Humperdinck, Bianca Jagger, Catherine the Great, and Lou Gramm (yes, from Foreigner).

And also on this day in 1938, Ella Fitzgerald recorded "A-Tisket A-Tasket," so let's enjoy, shall we?
