You know how you get a huge project done at work, and you take a big, deep sigh, and then you can't even remember how you spent your time before that project was sucking up every last second? That's how I felt the minute my MSNBC.com Winter Book Guide went live on Friday. Please check it out:
FICTION: Novels range from poignant to hilarious
NONFICTION: Football, teachers, left-handers
COOKBOOKS: New recipes will warm up winter
EDITOR’S CHOICE: Books that fell through the cracks

About Me
- Gael Fashingbauer Cooper
- I'm an entertainment editor at MSNBC.com, and have maintained Pop Culture Junk Mail since August, 1999. The New York Times called the site "one of the best places to explore pop culture online," and Entertainment Weekly included it on their Top 100 Web Sites list. If you like weird food, strange products, and 1970s and 1980s nostalgia, PCJM is your home away from home.
I have a brand new BOOK, written with Brian Bellmont. "Whatever Happened to Pudding Pops? The Lost Toys, Tastes and Trends of the '70s and '80s." Buy it online, and follow our retro reminiscing on our GenXtinct blog, Facebook, and Twitter.

I haven't read very many of those, but some look good.
I actually really liked Christ the Lord. I'm not very religious but was catholic when I was a kid. I liked that Jesus is portrayed as a very normal, boring kid with a very normal childhood (killing/resurecting of bullies aside). I thought it was an easy read. Then again, I also enjoyed the 800 page Shakesepare bio (by Peter Akroyd) I just read (VERY boring writing, but interesting material, if you know what I mean).
