1Q84 by Haruki Murakami. If you haven't tried Murakami before, this 1000 page tome is probably not the place to start; the stories The Elephant Vanishes or the novel Norwegian Wood would be more obvious beginnings. Wonderfully surreal, as all of Murakami's great works are, lyrical, beautiful. Highly recommended.

A fascinating look at what it's like for a U.S. company to start up a business in China: The China Twist
One of my favorite series ever. Loved it as a kid and it still stands up today. The omnibus of 5 books is available for $10.74!
Here is the book I recommend:
"Bridge Across the Land"
![]()
It is a historical story set in 1200s when Mongols invaded Europe...but not quite a typical historical fiction as there are a lot of romance, martial arts and mind-blowing. Best plot ever! I was reading it in the restroom and couldn't get out of it!

The Barber's Conundrum and Other Stories: Observations on Life from the Cheap Seats is a collection of humorous essays and satirical pieces that author John Hartnett wrote for a newspaper column. It's very good light reading.
I recently discovered a great paranormal romance series called the Immortal Rapture series. I highly recommend that fans of the genre check out the first book Arielle: Immortal Awakening (Immortal Rapture Series) and see if they like the series. A mortal woman with the gifts of telepathy and empathy meets an immortal man, but evil fights to keep them apart.
