Think of your favorite book. What is it about the book that makes you love it? Is it the eloquence of the writing? The adrenaline in the story? Characters that seem so real, they could be friends? Take our four–question survey (printable PDF) and call us during the show with your answers. Nancy Pearl will offer you specific suggestions based on your preferences.

Plus, Cliff Mass joins us with a weekend weather forecast.
