Looking for Recommendations of the Best Books	Can't Post

Hey everyone. Just wanted to let you know that Poets & Writers Magazine is looking for recommendations of the best book you read in 2011. We're introducing a new feature online that we'll post daily for the month of January called Readers Recommend. Send us your recommendation, with a write-up about why it was the best book you read this past year, and we'll consider it for inclusion. Send to readinglist@pw.org. Thanks!

Does it have to be a book that was first published in 2011?

Nope. It just has to be one that you read in 2011.

Hi Mary--How long do you want the write-ups to be? 250 words? 500? 1000? More?

Be regular and orderly in your life, that you may be violent and original in your work. -- Flaubert

The write-ups should be 100-250 words. Please include your name, city, and state. The feature will launch on January 1. Thanks!
