First Post - Hey! It's That Guy
I love pop culture and books about pop culture. This is an easy way to keep that interest going and encourage others to do so as well. The first pop culture book that comes to mind that I enjoy is Hey! It's That Guy: The Fametracker.com Guide To Character Actors by Tara Ariano and Adam Sternbergh. Ariano, best known as Wing Chun from the website Televisionwithoutpity.com and Sternbergh present a feature of their website as a book which is a great tool for TV and movie lovers. Presented with pictures, time lines of work and caricatures (Hey! It's that annoying co-worker!), the writers make a reference book charming and useful all at the same time. Anyone who has to know what other movies actors are in will definitely want to pick this up. The website fametracker.com is also hilarious and a great alternate IMDb tool. Their feature "Celebrity vs. Thing" is off the wall and always insightful. Check it out.

Hey--what ever happened to that Six Feet Under book you were going to get for me? Still a million holds on it I suppose. I just thought of it and thought it might be a good idea for another book to review.
I must get this...thanks for the recommendation!
