Ahh, ObamaCare - it doesn't even affect me and I'm already getting anxiety about it from this side of the Atlantic. Affordable healthcare - sounds bloody awful (almost as bad as free healthcare - eeeek! ok, 'free' healthcare). But at least you'll be prepared for when it comes in. And it's probably more useful to your life than reading about Zelda (this is a videogame, yes?) Congratulations are due, however, as I see only one diet book in the top ten - good work America, your New Year's Resolutions are clearly much better than ours in old Blighty (or yours drop off a lot sooner). Having said that, the only thing on the list that catches my juvenile attention is This is Not My Hat, but that's  probably because I enjoy monosyllabic picture books.
