How often do you recommend books to others, and who do you recommend them to? Do you only recommend books to your “reading friends” or to anyone you think might find the book interesting? What does it take for a book to make it to your ‘recommendation’ list?PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT with either the link to your own Musing Mondays post, or share your opinion in a comment here (if you don’t have a blog). Thanks.
I recommend books every once in a while to friends but usually only if I REALLY loved the book or if it was one that I particularly thought would be of interest to the particular person I'm recommending it to.
For the most part I only recommend books to my "reading friends", but as I don't have a whole lot of those, the recommendations sometimes flow over onto my "non-reading friends"... and they don't always appreciate it. Then there are those who I get stuck in a recommendation rut with. My sister, for instance, who is only a sometimes-reader often freaks out when she sees the piles of books I've stacked on her desk. Apparently I've given her too much recently.

Those who don't read just don't get it, do they?

I'm always trying to get my sister-in-law to read because I've got quite a few books that I know she will love but she just won't give them a chance :(

I agree with Kim! I don't like it when I hear people saying, 'I hate to read'. I'll never understand it. Anyway, here's my answer:

Mine is actually up earlier than normal, although it probably makes as little sense as usual.

Late, and staying up late to answer, but I love that question.
That said- know any bookstores, anywhere, that are hiring in this dismal economy? I've always wanted to work in a bookstore.
