MizB of Should Be Reading asks this week:
What is the one (or maybe two) qualities a book must have for you to pass it along to your best friend as a "must-read"?
For fiction, it would have to have a strong narrative and/or strong characters. The characters would have to be relatable and well developed.
For non-fiction it would have to be a book that was unbelievable and had a strong narrative and also something that interested me but also the person that I would be recommending the book to.
