My list is up.

And I highly recommend anything by Tom Robbins, though Another Roadside Attraction is my absolute favorite.

I only italicized books on the list that I actually own but haven't read yet, because if I had to indicate all the ones I'm interested in, well... it'd probably be all of 'em!
