ISO: Looking for a good all-around cookbook

Misc.
Hi everyone

I only own four cookbooks, one is for the George Foreman grill, two are for crockpots, and one is called What's Cooking, and has a little bit of everything in it.

I want to purchase a couple more cookbooks, with the focus on ideas for dinner. There are just so many cookbooks out there, it is hard to know where to start. I'd appreciate any recommendations.

Thanks,

Dianne
