I remember having enjoyed these...

The list author says:
	"OK, it is a kid's book.  But who cares?  I loved it as a child and I still enjoy it.  It also allows to procrastinate whilst retaining moral highground.  Just what I am doing now, in fact."

The list author says:
	"And if we are at it, here is another kid's book.  Addictive pacing, good morals (sigh) and highly entartaining.  Be true to thyself, read this book."

The list author says:
	"This blew my mind when I read it the first time, then it became confused.  And than a friend pointed out that he leans to heavily on Murakami.  I still really enjoyed it after the third reading."

The list author says:
	"Here is the master himself.   Beautiful and painful and funny and off-centre.  Love, death, dissipation.  It is all here."

The list author says:
	"Another author who learned from Murakami.  But rather weird than quirky.  With a bit of gastroporn thrown in."

The list author says:
	"Gastromemories of my foodie-hero.  Sex for steak, choc and spunk, cake and coffee."

The list author says:
	"My cooking started with this.  My dirty little sectret is that when I wrote up my PhD I only read recepie books in order to relax.  And this one is still high up the list."
