Okay then, I should probably try...

  2. The good, the bad, and the undead by Kim Harrison
  3. Dead as a doornail by Charlaine Harris

Hmmm well, I *would* by Dead as a Doornail (I've read the others), but for the fact that it's currently out in hardback, and I'm a hardbacks-for-christmas-only kinda gal.

Speaking of which, Amazon has two odd men out that don't appear on any other list:
(Undead and Unappreciated by MaryJanice Davidson, and Definitely Dead by Charlaine Harris). They are both hardbacks... no comment. (*glances at amazon coffers*) -

Meanwhile, Librarything's oddmen are the expected extra Hamiltons and Harrisons... and Reader2's?? - Well, they are Neverwhere, Stolen, Good Omens and Dune - All of which I've read and recommend, so I'd guess reader2 comes out a good bet for wildcard recommendations...

*TeeBee blinks are her last few posts and ponders purchasing a clipboard*

*Then toddles off to see if she can find Dead as a Doornail on ebay...*
