Guest Post: Sarvenaz Tash's Top 5 Books of 2011

We all know that the Best Book of 2012 is sure to be The Mapmaker and the Ghost. But while we're still stuck here in 2011, we figured we'd check in with its author, Sarvenaz Tash, to see what her Top 5 Books of 2011 were -- and here's what she said:

Episode 7: Best of 2011

An end-of-the-year spectacular with not one, but FIVE Top 5 Lists! We look back at our Top 5 Podcats, Books, TV Shows, Movies, and Concerts, and even get to share some bonus Top 5's sent in by Euric and Sarv.

Episode 6: New York City Marathon

Billy (for the fourth time) and Bryan (for the first!) both ran the NYC Marathon this past weekend and talk about it, along with their Top 5 Songs to Run To. And, as you might expect, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, poop, and nipples.
