      Excellente question, à laquelle je ne saurais vraiment répondre car c'est trop fluctuant. Je suis super mauvaise pour prodiguer des conseils en matière d'indispensables.
      Chez moi je dirais en vrac que les livres que je prête en priorité à la lecture à mes invités sont :
      Courtney Crumrin
      Blacksad
      Fables
      Hellboy
      Watchmen
      Sandman
      tous les Moomin
      Sin City
      La Brigade Chimérique
      Ken Games
      Maus
      La Ligue des Gentleman Extraordinaires

      Et bien sûr j'en oublie plein. Ajoute aussi Stardust de Gaiman et illustré par Veiss, et puis plein d'albums…

      Hmmm en ce moment je relis "Good Omens", viens de finir "Lost at Sea" et quelques autres comics. Sinon je lis des manuscrits, donc je peux pas trop en parler ! :)

      Dernièrement j'ai été pas mal bluffée par Le discours d'un roi et True Grit. C'est pas super original, donc. Mais c'est bon.
      (par contre, comme tu t'en doutais, ne va pas voir "Toi, Moi, les autres" même si Chantal Lauby cite NTM…)

      Daïfuku, carott cake, fondant au chocolat (de ma maman), crème brûlée, et caramel au beurre salé.

      You mean a Tardis ? I'll probably find some Thylacine and try to turn one as a pet. Then, I'll have to meet Theophile Gautier.

      Aaah dure question. J'en ai plusieurs selon les besoins et lieux.
      Alors Critic (www.critic.fr) a Rennes, déjà. Parce que c'est ma famille du livre. Même sur Paris j'y achetais mes livres, merci la commande en ligne!
      Et pour la même raison l'Atalante, à Nantes, où je vais depuis le lycée...
      Pour Nantes j'adore me fournir en comics us chez À pleins rêves !
      Sur Paris j'apprécie Scylla (dans le 11e) specialisé en sf. Et pour les comics/bd j'me partage entre Pulp's, Arkham et Album.
      J'en oublie beaucoup hein...surtout pour les libraires généraux !

      That's a fucking good question.
      I can only give you a lacunar answer.
      (long, very long, lacunar answer.)

      * First of all is probably "Le roman de la Momie" (the romance of a mummy) by Théophile Gautier and really close there is some Flaubert's stories.
      I was pretty classical then, around 9 or 10 years old. That's about dead people, love, and archeology stuff. Then there was another one calle "Love, vampire and werewolves" (by Marie Aude Murail).
      I know, that sounds really really lame, maybe really "twilight" (that's absolutely NOT like that). But years ago there was not SO MANY books about that and this one was about *people thinking that they were surnatural* when, actually, they were real psychotics.
      That was the very first books where I feel totally related to their. Totally and absolutely. You know, when you can smell, feel and experiment what's written.

      Then, when I was older Théophile Gautier came back with so many tragic ghost-love-stories. Nowadays, I still feel connected to Gautier and Maupassant short stories. Then some books of Tanith Lee, Tolkien, Silverberg, Card…Mostly "Enchantment" from Orson Scott Card is simply wonderful.

      * Really recently?

      2 years ago, I've read a novel from Caroline Lamarche, "Lettres du pays froid" (letters from the cold country). I chose that book among others, randomly, for a class. Because the title was...exotic. And I felt in love with this writer. And that book.
      I can only describe this story as a very deep «memento mori» where each word sounds exactly where it should be…

      *I'll add ONE book, that I discovered really late in my life (around my 20 ou 19), wich is "Winter in Moominvalley" by Tove Janson. They're not really popular books here, they're even hard to find in bookshop (when they're published).
      Moomin is, for me, a very very interesting character and this book is my very personal therapy. Each time I'm feeling deeply bad I read it. And, each time, I cry, think a lot and feel better.

      *This year…i don't know. I've read so many books, after all that's my work, but I haven't ONE for 2010 who changed me. Hopefully, the year is not over yet.

      What's really strange, thinking about those books, is that many of those are french and almost really classic books, with a touch of fantastic. They're also related to past. History. Death.

      And I mostly read SciFi-Fantasy-… stories.

      That's related. I need to see/read our world's cracks and failures, but I need to see that from another point of view.

      (it's really late, I'm tired, and I'm sure that, tomorrow morning, I'll have more books to talk about.)
