Bunnahabhain for me, 12 year old, 18 if you can afford it and 'at the loch of the green corrie' by Andrew Grieg. A biography of Norman Mccaigs holidays in assynt (sort of) written by his friend, really good and think I'll read it again now I've been up there. And just started flicking through sandisons river and lochs again...it is winter!!
I've read the 'somewhere else' rangley wilson book others have mentioned too, unusual fishing book but good

Malt Whisky Companion by the late Michael Jackson( no not that one, the bearded Beer and Whisky writer) and any of the contents of your choice, Islay for me and preferably Port Ellen if I can find any at a half reasonable price.

Aberlour a'Bunadh is a nice one to have.  After working on a PC all day I don't care to read as much as I used to   :(

Thought I'd give a Spey side malt a try and got Aberlour and to be honest it's much better than I was expecting any others along these lines too try?

Springbank for a dram close to my heart, won a bottle for best trout of the week at Garvault Hotel one year and just got another bottle from my brother for christmas. Reading Raw Spirit by Iain Banks at moment.

Having previously worked in Strathspey for quite a long time I can confirm there's quite a few for you to try :D 

Less well known than some, Tamdhu and Aultmore are worth a try. Of the main ones Glenlivet is still my favorite.

I'm liking a Glen Moray at the moment. Not bad at all for £20 from ASDA.

Hard for me to settle and read like I used to, but just now I've finally got round to David Niven's The Moon's a Balloon. Fascinating and very funny.
Listen son, said the man with the gun
There's room for you inside.
