Jazz! What a fantastic book; and your description of it is so dead-on.
Gaudy Night is one of my top three favorite Wimsey mysteries, and is the one I re-read the most often.
Good Omens is awesome, and I am reading it to my son right now. I totally agree with you on questions about best books: pfui. I loved The Dark Is Rising when I was a kid, although The Greenwitch was my favorite of those and I think it was because it was a story about the girl in the series, and about her connection with a female spirit; that really struck a chord for me. My favorite play is also by Stoppard, but it's Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead (OMG the way he plays with language and words in that is BRILLIANT).
