Need a Sci Fi or Fantasy Recommendation?

NPR's got you covered. This gives you a the Top 100 books as chosen by 60,000 participants, and cut down by a panel of nerdy experts. They've left out young adult and horror, but I'm kind of OK with it. If it's too much to read through, they also have a handy chart. (For the full view)

Day 3: The Speakers

David Isay
I love StoryCorps. A lot. I discovered it when one semester during grad school when I had a Friday morning class, and listened to StoryCorps on NPR as I drove in. I loved it. I love hearing regular people's stories. I love getting to hear stories from all sorts of different people, and I love the fact that the stories are archived and housed at the American Folk Life Center at the Library of Congress so people can listen to them for years to come. After that semester, I subscribed to the podcast so I could listen to it every week.
