Look for a book called The Big Book of Appetizers by Carla Snyder and Meredith Deeds. It is loaded with great recipes, and is divided into categories, such as freezer friendly, quick and simple, vegetarian, etc. They also have suggested theme menus, including Super Bowl, Cinco de Mayo, and Bastille Day, to name a few.
I third or fourth the suggestion. Martha's Entertaining has lots of fun ideas.
I even did the vodka in an ice cube carton shape a few times in the 80's. Still fun.
I agree with the Martha book, it's a really complete book. I also love the English book "Diva Cooking" by Jennifer Joyce along with someone else I can't recall. I love her books. I checked and it's available on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Diva-Cooking-Unashamedly-Glamorous-Party/dp/1552853713
I guess it's not technically the same, but there's been a lot published on Tapas in recent years, including a book by Penelope Casas, one of the most dependable recipe writers.
