From the Editors

November 20, 2008

Tell us about your favorite, semi-secret, slightly (or mostly) guilty genre of books and a couple of recent favorites in said genre. You know: crime, romance, sci-fi, founding father biographies, New York Review of Books titles, vampire lore, cats who solve mysteries, etc. If you hoard philosophy textbooks in a secret bookshelf, this month’s Of Recent Note is for you.

Please send your entries (one entry per genre, unless your choice warrants more) to bridget@themorningnews.org by Sunday, Nov. 30, at 6 p.m. Eastern. Entries should be around 150 words. Please also send along a link to your web site.
