If someone was looking for you in a bookstore,
in which section would he/she be most likely to find you?

What is your must-read recommendation from that category of books?


Question selected from The Conversation Piece 2.

HISTORY or PSYCHOLOGY
In the immortal words of Ziggy Marley..
"Don' know yer past
you don' know yer fewtcha!"

I was at the Grand Opening of a HUGE Bookstore a few years back and while waiting for my wife I stood near the centre of the store to do some people watching...and everyone seemed so friendly I must have had about 20 guys smile and say hello within a matter of minutes...
when my wife found me I told her how friendly the atomosphere was...she smiled and pointed to a huge sign directly above my head that read Gay Issues.

You must read
Origins by Asimov,
Life On Earth by Attenborough and The Culture Of Narcissism by Lasch.

i would be found in the biopunk section

I like autobiographies but you'll find me in the fiction department looking for people with strange names. I recommend On Green Dolphin Street by Sebastian Faulks. The end is heartbreaking but I've read it several times.

I'm kinda a sci-fi/fantasy geek. But then, I also read a lot of non-fiction, history/anthropology/physics. So you could find me in any of those sections.

But if I was going to recommend, it would be Steven Brust, hands down(for fiction.)

Also, to reply to this post, I would be in the sci-fi or poetry section.

Music section.....All Music Guide to Jazz.

I'd like to think you couyld find me behinf the counter.

I'd probably be directing people to the science fiction & fantasy section, or the religion and spirituality section, or to the ancient history or science section.
