We love books. Tell us about your favourite books and authors, and why they are so good. And while you're at it - having dined out for years on the time I threw Dan Brown out of a train window - tell us who to avoid.

For those who enjoy science, animals and a good story..
A Primate's Memoir: A Neuroscientist's Unconventional Life Among the Baboons. Author, Robert Sapolsky.
I absolutely loved this, and have always recommend it. So far, 100% success, everyone else liked it too.
His other stuff is cool, well written, amusing and informative but this tale of baboon shit, blood chemistry and genuine affection for the baboons he studied makes it the best of a good author in my convoluted opinion.
