Lists of Bests: maripo322's "If you want to be well read, super smart, and just plain groovy, you need to read these..." http://www.listsofbests.com/list/30101 My favorite books might not actually make you any of these things, but they're the greatest things I've ever read. And a new, awesome, unusual read will def make you feel well read, super smart, and crazy groovy.
