Yes!! Another person whose reading lists I can get inspired by every month. In case you hadn't discovered, I LOVED reading and writing about books and book posts are some of my all-time favourites :-)
I quite agree with you on the Uglies trilogy. I was pleasantly surprised by the ending, because even though it was still open, it was a lot more satisfactory than I'd feared. It was the kind of open ending that doesn't seem like the author just thought "Oops, I can't think of a way to resolve this, so I'll just end the book here and then hope I get an idea for a sequel". It seemed more like "Well, this is a good way to end this book, and it's open enough that if I want to write a sequel, I'll still be able to."
Kitchen Confidential, Anthony Bourdain I really, really want to read this one. It's been on my reading list ever since I read So Many Books, So Little Time by Sara Nelson as she spends almost an entire chapter talking about it. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like it's made it to Denmark yet, so I'll just have to stay patient.
