Best of 2007


In our attempt to mimic the ideas of others (see Amy's list over at Arrogant Self Reliance), and our need to be just like the very vapid VH-1, we present our very own Best of 2007 list. Why, because it's the end of the year and it seems the right to do. Not to mention we've had way too much nog.

Hi Mr. Fanboy,
So glad to hear that Arsonist's Guide... is good! It's on my to-read and to-buy list. I will get on that, forthwith!

A word of caution on the book: The narrator's lack of self-esteem in many cases can be annoying, but just roll with it. Happy Holidays to you too. Got the package today. Thanks for the book.
