THE LONELY POLYGAMIST, by Brady Udall
The novel's title character — a Utah contractor named Golden Richards — has four wives, 28 kids, and a doozy of a midlife crisis. But Udall gracefully uses that very big family drama to create a new kind of American epic.

''NOTHIN' ON YOU,'' B.o.B feat. Bruno Mars
The Grammy-nominated debut single by the Atlanta rapper was one of 2010's most addictive songs — and one of the most romantic, thanks to B.o.B's heartfelt lyrics and breakout star Mars' tuneful chorus.

RED DEAD REDEMPTION
It could have just been Grand Theft Auto: The Western. Instead, Rockstar Games created a Wild West world that felt gorgeously expansive, equally influenced by John Ford, Sergio Leone, and Unforgiven-era Clint Eastwood. It's the rare videogame that just keeps getting better — right down to the heart-stopping ending. (Rated M)
