Good for you for expanding the notion of "coffee table book." On my coffee table currently are one novel, one Paris Review, and two collections of poetry that I hope to finish reading, along with Oliver Burkeman's Meditations for Mortals: Four Weeks to Embrace Limitations and Make Time for What Counts, not because I plan to read the Burkeman but because the title is a good reminder that I don't have forever.
