A request for home buying books

Read Street blogger Nancy Johnston has put out a call for book recommendations -- books about home buying, otherwise you wouldn't be reading about it here, naturally.

What home buying books would you suggest? What home selling ones, for that matter?

She's looking for nonfiction, but I'll happily take recommendations about favorite housing-related novels, too.

Thanks for the cross-blogging, Jamie!

I've gotten some great tips already, and the process is a little less scary now.
