New Year's Resolution: Read More Good Books (Maybe Even Write Some!)

Editor Thessaly Le Force and illustrator Jane Mount have created a fantastic book for holiday gift giving, and any writer or booklover would be tickled to receive it. In My Ideal Bookshelf, literary figures have contributed their favorite book titles to the project, and their spines have been lovingly illustrated by Mount.

These are books that are "love to read" and life-changing titles as well as those that contributors have chosen to display in their homes. You'll even get some peeks at the bookshelves of book-loving celebrities, too (like foodie Mark Bittman and rocker Patti Smith).

Books are the perfect mate of a person that provide companionship when a person is alone and the amount of knowledge that we got is beyond. If you are reading a book concerning about one topic then it will let you know about more than many areas too this is the best attribute of book.
