"Smart and bracingly funny ... a rollicking addition to the reading group guide genre...carried along by a lively and nimble voice and a treasure trove of once-famous, now-forgotten titles." -- Publishers Weekly

"[Book groups] would be well advised to bypass the best-sellers in front of bookstores and libraries and pick up this clever (and useful) reading guide. This book's authors have an eye for offbeat and unappreciated classics [...and] taste that spans the highbrow-lowbrow cultural divide." -- Chicago Tribune Books

"Sometimes the biggest problem a book discussion group faces is finding a book that everyone wants to read. Here's the solution: get a copy of Read this Next...open it to a page at random, and read whatever book is discussed on that page." -- Bob Etier, Technorati.com

"[A] brisk and often funny guide, bristling with snap judgments, the snappier the better." -- Wall Street Journal
