tnt: recommendations!

Reminders: Editing Post, and Week 2 Topic!

Hello everyone! Today we're having an open T&T thread, for book recommendations!

Each recommendation should give a brief summary of the book and why this book has earned a place as one of your favourites. A simple 'because I liked it' usually isn't enough to convince someone, so tell us why we should pick it up ourselves. :-)

I'll go first!

title: If on a winter's night a traveller
author: Italo Calvino
why: You are trying to read a book called If on a winter's night a traveller. As you venture further into the book, it comes apart at the seams: the walls between fiction and reality start to fade. Little mysteries in the plot come together (like how the titles of the chapters make up a coherent sentence). A definite must the next time you want an armchair adventure.
