all books all the time

These are the best books I read in 2007--not necessarily published in 2007. Also, they're not in any order (except, I think, the order I happened to read them in). I tried to keep the list relatively short--I managed to get it down to 15, & given that I read 219 books in 2007, that's not bad!
