The Chronicles of Narnia and Philosophy, edited by Gregory Bassham and Jerry Walls
I didn't agree with every essay in this collection, but I was grateful to find them all intellectually rigorous, and some of them were downright loveable besides. Very good job.

Dead in the Scrub, by B. J. Oliphant
Fun mystery starring a feisty and opinionated-to-the-point-of-didacticism middle-aged rancher who used to work for 'the Bureau' and now lives in Colorado north of Denver. Happy happy book for poor sick brains which could otherwise only handle fluff such as that listed below.
(85/250)
Princess in Pink, by Meg Cabot
If you like stories about winsome and self-deprecating young women thrust reluctantly into the limelight, and their wacky family and friends, you will like this book. At least if you liked the 4.5 or so preceding volumes in the series.

The Art of Undressing, by Stephanie Lehmann
There are certain sorts of books that I can't be bothered with unless I am stressed or sick, at which point they become perfect - and this is one of those. Late 20s daughter of a stripper works through her body issues and culinary school all at the same time while trying to land her man. That said, it was much brainier (and frequently much more explicitly feminist) than I was expecting. Yay smart fluff.
