I usually enjoy the Type Director's Club annual, although I haven't seen it in a few years

"Graphic Design: the New Basics", by Ellen Lupton and her colleague (can't remember her name right now) is great, but more geared toward beginners. I used parts of it in a class I taught this semester – it's great.
Taschen always kicks butt for eye candy. I got their jazz album cover compilation and Illustration Now 2 this year. I also got "A History of Advertising," which has some excellent stuff in it, but which is printed entirely in GIll Sans italic. Kind of weird.
