Blog Discussion Topic for May - Read-Alikes!

As we move into summer I thought it would be fun to use the rest of May for a reader advisory thread on the AkLA blog. Here's how it works:

Post the name of an book or author that you absolutely love and what you love about them. Next, let your fellow librarians give you suggestions of other authors and books you might enjoy.

I'll go first...I *loved* Kurt Vonnegut Jr's. Bluebeard because it was about a painter and the writing was excellent. I'm always looking for novels about visual artists, particularly painters. Any ideas?
