The following are some of my favorite books that I could think of off the top of my head. Hopefully you dig the list.
Jitterbug Perfume was my favorite.
Also, although I normally don't enjoy non-fiction as much, Blue Hand: The Beats in India was well done and gave me a lot of insight into a field I knew little about.
Jitterbug Perfume by Tom Robbins. Also Still Life with Woodpecker and most his his others.
YES!!! I cannot stress Christopher Moore's books enough. Lamb is the greatest book of all time! I re-read it annually.
Jitterbug Perfume by Tom Robbins (which probably inspired Lamb) is also great as well.
I think I'd have to say Jitterbug Perfume by Tom Robbins. It's a novel about a search for immortality, beets, and the perfect taco. I love the way he takes several different storylines and weaves them together. I also really enjoy his sense of humor.
And because I can never have just one favorite, I'll also add Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett. It's a story about the end of the world and it's absolutely fabulous! <3
My Favorite Book!
Some are better than others, but they all showcase his special humor, imagination and perception. My top three:
Fierce Invalids Home From Hot Climates
Still Life with Woodpecker
Jitterbug Perfume
I just finished Jitterbug Perfume and found it to be quite delightful.
I'm all over the place, I have a few books in progress.
Jitterbug Perfume - Tom Robbins
Packing for Mars - Mary Roach
Freakonomics - Levitt & Dubner
Outliers: The Story of Success - Malcolm Gladwell
Highly recommend Jitterbug Perfume by Tom Robbins. It’s a beautifully written story about undying love that spans centuries and the power that scent plays in our memories.

I have three to recommend.
First, "Invisible Monsters," by Chuck Palahniuk. Linky. I love this guy's books, they're all really dark and leave an odd taste on the tongue after reading. This one is one of my favorites by him. I used to own it, but my bitch-ass sister stole it. It's that good, though. I totally don't blame her for taking it. Another one of his I highly recommend is "Lulluby." No one's managed to steal that one from me yet. :D
Second is "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo," by Stieg Larsson. Linky. The whole trilogy is fantastic, the second book being my favorite of them, but you have to start at the beginning, right?
Third, and definitely the best, IMHO, is "Jitterbug Perfume," by Tom Robbins. Linky. My favorite book by my favorite author. I could go on about his books for days, they're so damn amazing, but this book takes the cake, by far. It stuck with me for weeks after reading it. It's not really all that dark, but in a way it is.
All of them are perfectly well under $8 if you get used paperbacks! And even if you don't buy any of these, at least get to the library and check them out that way. You won't regret it, especially the Tom Robbins. And if you ever want any more book recommendations, I'm here! I effin' love books, if you can't tell by the wall I just submitted here. :D
